Old or new, the SAT sorts test-takers into roughly the same rank order as any major brand of IQ test (which is what "correlates to" means here). But for the old or new SAT, and for whatever brand of IQ test one talks about, all mental tests have error of estimation, and the same test wouldn't sort the same group of test-takers into exactly the same rank order on two separate occasions.
