Word of the Week #3

Disparity

Source: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/16/us/politics/16czar.html

How it was used: "The chief vowed to address the disparity, and it has decreased."

Definition: Noun 1. The condition or fact of being unequal, as in age, rank, size, etc.
2. Incongruity, unlikeness.
3. Inequality or difference.

My sentence: The disparity between the two applicants was obvious. One was experienced and the other was not.
