does the SAT actually reflect intelligence?

<p>THE SAT DOESNT MEASURE INTELLIGENCE. But generally (most of the time), smart people do well on it. I have a few STUPID friends who got mid 2300’s on the test and smart ones who didnt break 2200.
MATH - easy to make stupid mistakes, so people not too smart in math can do better than the very smart. No questions involving creativity.
CRITICAL READING - Mostly a vocab test.
WRITING - All depends on your EAR for writing. Essay section is just horrible.</p>
