Bigb14 - I have no idea what you are trying to say. Of course high SAT scores alone won’t get you into Harvard, but low SAT scores will almost for sure keep you out. I would say for the latter case there is a very high r value between being turned down and low SAT scores, although again admittance decisions are multi-pronged.

I think a better way to put it, and what I think you are trying to say, is that having high SAT scores is a necessary but not sufficient condition for getting into Harvard.
