Who's to say that their lower-income status doesn't out-weigh the other factors you're describing?

The student's family's income is not taken into account for the adversity score.

Seems like an oversight in how the score is calculated, then.

As I understand, there is no 'out-weighing' - holding other factors constant, their adversity score would be even higher if their neighborhood had more crime, or spoke worse english.
