Perfect score!

No, not on the SAT, but rather on the PSAT. does this earn me any CC street cred?

240 PSAT isn't that impressive imho. It's much easier to make dumb mistakes on the full SAT :P

^u dont necessairly get a scholarship for a perfect PSAT

once u pass the min. criteria, everyone is on a level playing field

ex. let's say the cutoff is 210

someone who gets a 240 has no advantage over someone getting a 210

If u're talking about colleges, I would assume he's applyin to top colleges who really don't care about PSAT

However, he does have a outstanding SAT but top colleges see those all the time too
