I took the SAT as a 13-year-old for placement in a smart-kids program, and I got a 1390, with math slightly over verbal.

I'm taking the New SAT in a month or so, and I've been taking some practice tests. I've never gotten below a 770 on a section, or below 2330 overall.

Well, I've no idea what these SAT things are, but I'm seeing some dim bulbs with big scores here.

Nah, I never did it either. I was just guessing. Slightly better than Drogue seems like an accurate enough estimate

I don't think that the SATs ran up to 1600 when I took them. I think that the maximum score was 1400.

Perhaps it would be more useful to ask what your percentile rank was.

Nope, but US unis won't let us in without them, usually. We just take the US test, it's not like it needs any special preparation

we can't help it if you are old. And old people are dumber anyways, so it will scale accordingly.

With females, and even with the ones you'd expect to be "bullies", I'm just fine.

Other smart kids hate me though.

assez bien eh? thats what I usually got when I took brevet classes, although i like to translate it as 'good enough' figured it was useless in america so instead of taking french bac, went into biligual IB. got 24 pts (for those in the know) but 13.4 is great on the bac.

well, to be fair, the Cal State University system schools are not exactly known for academic rigour

they are a step up from straight up state schools, but a step down from every UC school.

Well in Israel the SAT score ranges between 200-800 so i'll just double my 750 and get 1500.

It has 3 sections: verbal, math and english. verbal and math each cost twice as much as english.

I had a perfect english score, a very high math score and the lowest was the verbal part, because I didn't remember silly hebrew words that were invented in the 1920s and didn't stick.
