As are ACT and SAT scores
Its grwded and weighed different
I hear folks all the time sayin well my kid got a 30-34 on the ACT
that was rare as hens teeth in 1974
Its ridiculous
I think the mean on these tests has been bumped 28-30 percent
Kids are sure as hell not smarter
Word.
I racked up a 1457 on the old 1600 SAT back in 1969. Knew kids from my jr high days back in Virginia who I struggled to keep up with- bet more than one aced it.
Today I meet college grads who astound me with how little they know. If they have a STEM degree they are least well educated in that field. But unlike years ago I am rarely intimidated by someone's breadth of knowledge. Maybe I just don't get out enough.
