You’re wrong, OP. I have taken IQ tests and my CR score is furthest from my IQ. Interpreting CR passages in the bizarre way that College Board does under time constraints and having a top notch vocabulary says little to nothing about my intelligence. I think that the math section is a much better indicator.

I also recall reading about a company in China that is testing people with top IQs. They are recruiting math and physics PhDs (not English) to be tested. They are also recruiting students with 800s on the SAT math section (not critical reading). I can’t remember what it’s called right now, but I’ll try to find it.
