Mucksdogs- That is why I keep saying SATs AND a high GPA. Also, I am not sure if you were reading the thread several pages ago but I had this argument with Poet back then about SATs and IQs. I have read several books (including one by the president of the Amer. Psych. Assoc- or whatever it is called) and found numerous online quotes and references by psychologists that say it is a close substitute for an IQ test. She says that she is a psychologist but hasn’t shown me any studies that refute what I wrote. I would also add that even if she could, the point wouldn’t be that it is wrong to think the SAT measures IQ; simply that lots of psychologists think it does, while some apparently might not.
