<p>Hudsonvalley- remember, if she took the SAT AFTER 1996, she needs to subtract ~100 points from her score before using that conversion table. They made the test easier in 1996. Also, remember these tests aren’t perfect but they are consistent. SAT tests have similar correlation with IQ tests as IQ tests have with each other when the test is repeated. </p>
<p>My point isn’t to build up IQ tests as the be someone’s entire intellectual prowess, trust me. I scored an 810 the first go around. My point is that I do believe that in a POPULATION (anecdotes aside):
1)Hi SAT is strongly correlated with high IQ
2)Hi IQ is correlated with high intelligence
3) Schools with higher SAT scores, in the aggregate have smarter student bodies.</p>
<p>Yes, there is a LOT of debate on this and like I said, if I had taken my initial IQ or SAT scores at gosphel, I would consider myself borderline ■■■■■■■■. However, I am logical enough to know that my situation has nothing to do with the aggregate statistics.<br>
