[singing] garbage in, garbage out, disco lady...
...the "smartest" students' favorite musician is Beethoven, with an average SAT score of 1371, and at the other end of the spectrum is Lil' Wayne, with an average score of 889. Other bands at the top of the scale are Counting Crows, Radiohead, and Sufjan Stevens... Surprisingly, no style of music stands out above the rest, but rather most bands fit within the 1000 to 1150 score range.
This "writer" puts "smartest" in quote marks, which is "stupid" and "moronic". This "study" basically has no conclusion, other than, "no style of music relates to higher SAT scores" and most band preferences correspond to average. Wow, who knew?

Did they check for Babs fans?
