<p>Many often say that SAT scores will be good indicators for high school seniors’ performance in college. </p>

<p>Since Princeton began a Quintile Ranking system to rank its students at the same time it started a deflation policy in 2004, I was wondering if anyone has seen any data related Quintile Ranking to SAT Scores. I am asking this question to concern my possible future rank in this “new” system no other ivy schools currently have. I am a pre-med student with SAT 1590 (2360) and concern about my chance to be in the first quintile with possible grade deflation.</p>

<p>According Princeton Website, the average SAT score for 2009 Class (1220) is 1460 with 730 in Verbal and 730 in Math, and no data net for 2010.
