<p>Even though Chicago students have, as a whole, high SAT scores, I am not much of a fan of using small differences in them to compare students or colleges. As a past president of Harvard recently said, a person with a 650 V SAT will succeed in the Harvard curriculum. Though scores may be a little higher for some versus others, there is little evidence that the scores have much predictive validity, especially 650 or above. Find the fit, the faculty, resources, living environment, and programs that match needs, not scores.</p>
