<p>While Duke TIP may have 70,000 per year, are they all in 7th grade, and did they all take the SAT (versus the ACT or some other qualification)?</p>
<p>Even if 70,000 took the SAT for that, that is only 4% of SAT test takers, so being in the bottom 7% of the presumed top 4% of 7th graders is still pretty high compared to the overall class.</p>
