<p>I can score well on the SAT, but it seems like it doesn’t really predict success in future life.</p>
<p>It’s not meant to predict success in future life. Nothing can… (?)</p>
<p>Anyway, for what it does, the SAT isn’t all bad. I mean, as a test that’s supposed to be accessible to everyone, be fair, etc… the SAT isn’t doing so bad…</p>
<p>Now, you may argue on how much the SAT is weighed in college admissions is total bullcrap, but the test itself? I don’t think it’s that bad…</p>
<p>good point. i remember though that there was some question on the SAT pertaining to a sport that mostly caucasian students were able to answer.</p>
<p>it was orsmann-regatta</p>
<p>yah, it was 53% of white students and 22% of african-american students answering correctly.</p>
<p>It shows how smart you are. The SAT tests how well you have taken in and understood the math/verbal/writing skills you were taught throughout your entire educational career. If you do well on the SAT’s, I’m pretty sure it shows something about your aptitude, and how well you can perform in the future.</p>
