Don't put much stock in SAT/ACT. More of a memorization test than an intelligence test.

Haven't taken one recently.

I just mean that I know people including family members that have scored high on SATs that I don't consider intelligent through observing their own choices and actions.

Plus, you can boost your SAT through a cram-prep course (money), you can't do that with an IQ test.

That's what you get for being a racist. Literally lowers your IQ.

And if you are as freaking old as I am, here's a translation between old and new SAT scores. https://research.collegeboard.org/programs/sat/data/equivalence/sat-composites

On a side note, the score inflation is ridiculous. Wtf?

IIRC 1850 on the old SAT but that was over 10 years ago. I was a moron back then. Eventually, I'll have to take a GRE and it will be a better measure of how I am now.


act sat scores are pretty useless at this poitn because they are only evaluating a persons knowledge based on like 1 year of college and highschool

Would have been useful before I voted. I took it when it was still 1600 before the essay addition.

I figured the "New" scores were just a return to form.
