My S has started me reading some of his books on intelligence (a few from Tokenadult's list) and I can only comment on a few things:
1. Some people are more intelligent than others. Most of us have our good days and our bad days, and our stong areas and our weak areas. Tests don't define people too well.
2. The SAT is a test.
3. The most inportant factor invovled in success in life is hard work. If you are really much, much smarter than the smartest kids on CC (which is very rare), some opportunities may open for you in theoretical physics, or on the Supreme Court. Otherwise, focus on work ethic and producing high-quality work products, at school and in life.
4. Your preparation for the SAT is a work product.
