Just out of curiosity.....

<p>Is there a coorelation between political preference and SAT scores. I’m personally Republican and have a 2280. I know this seems really really stupid but its for a statistics project…</p>

<p>There might be a correlation based on the kinds of people who care a lot about college and SATs, who pays for prep classes and books and the like, and where they live. For example, you might notice that lots of ppl on this site, who care a lot about this stuff, are from NJ, a blue state. Not that there aren’t plenty of Republicans in NJ who care about college. But that might be my guess-Democrats a little higher overall. Because I don’t imagine quite as many people from Kansas take prep classes and the like. But your 2280 is a great score, and you’re Republican. I got 2390, I’m Democrat, if you want the data.</p>

<p>nice job with the 2390. I’d die for that…</p>

<p>It actually is a statistic. There is something about there being a very large percent of people who vote republican who never graduated highschool and then for Democrats the percentage goes for people who have graduated highschool. So technically the majority of people who vote Democrat are smarter. It is also a regional thing about how more people graduate highschool in the north than in the south and such.</p>

<p>The Ivy’s are liberal if that says something…and well…most great colleges seem to be…</p>

<p>Hmm…I’m vice president of the Young Republicans. Does that look bad? Or good, since I’m different from most other smart people.</p>

<p>It’s good to be active in anything I’d assume…</p>

<p>well…unless it’s like that KKK lol</p>

<p>Of course not. Colleges won’t judge you based on your political preference, though I guess you could say they do indirectly, since your party usually reflects personality. But just because it’s a trend doesn’t mean they’ll think any less of you. I’d say it’s probably better, esp if you are from a Democratic area- it’s much harder to be a Republican in NJ than in Kansas. And leadership is always good, too.</p>

<p>guardin devil, there is nothing like that, as far as i know. that is the wierdest thing i’ve ever heard/ read in my life!!!</p>

<p>Ya I donno about the whole SAT thing. Some bored person might have randomly made one lol</p>
