Date: May 29th, 2025 1:15 PM Author: Umber Tantric Water Buffalo Yes, it's optional so only whites and Asians are taking it (and some of the whites are not even taking it if they have a good enough "hook"). Also as people have mentioned there have been multiple rescalings as well as dumbing down the actual material itself (no more analogies, etc) to make it more of a grinder test and less of an intelligence test.

Date: May 29th, 2025 10:01 PM Author: Henna Area Pistol IDK. They see a lot more of the world through the internet and social media, and have access to drill down easily on shit they aren't getting. This is actually what you would expect if you believe the internet is a disruptive knowledge/learning force. Though there's also DEI bullshit thrown in masking it too.

Date: May 29th, 2025 10:35 PM Author: orange dingle berry parlor I think its a combination of
(i) the test is dumbed down due to DEI. they took out analogies and keep making it easier
(ii) 20 years ago only the truly elite schools prepped kids for the SATS (and then these NE private schools acted like their kids were geniuses). Now even middle class kids in Alabama have parents who are paying for college counselors. |

Date: June 2nd, 2025 2:09 PM Author: Elite Indigo House SAT Percentile Rankings for a 1350 Score:
Early 2000s (pre-2005 SAT format) Scale: 1600 (Verbal + Math)
A score of 1350 would typically fall around the 93rd to 95th percentile. This indicates a very strong performance relative to test-takers of that era.
Recent SAT (2016-present)
Scale: Revised 1600 scale (Evidence-Based Reading & Writing + Math) A 1350 now corresponds roughly to around the 90th to 92nd percentile. |
