Seems like there was an LSAT score posted. Someone looked at thr HLS admissions and deduced Barry’s scores and college GPA. Educated guess.
They don’t teach math at Communist High School.
25+ years ago, a 1300 or greater SAT score would get you into an Ivy League (or equiv.) school. Don’t know about today, but I run into kids who score over 1200 and they’re not too swift.
“He is not smarter than a 5th Grader in actuality”.
——this conjures up interesting possibilities;
in January , Jeff Foxworthy should try to get him on the
show, and then, get him right into The Bible Challenge show he does. I’d love to see this “Christian” answer questions
about the Bible.
How do we know that?
And somehow the dems say I am stupid. My daughter can do better then that.
I went to a prep school that was a feeder to the Ivies. I would say the bottom cutoff was something around 1400, assuming you had really good grades and extracurriculars to compensate for not scoring in the 1500s.
And there is no way to compare the SAT in the 60s and 70s to the SAT today. They have "dumbed down" the test substantially - e.g. the dreaded "analogies" section has been completely removed from the verbal and the math has dropped in difficulty as well. In the 80s they introduced a "Strivers" program i.e. affirmative action credit.
Plus now there is a separate writing section that is essentially an 800 point "gimme" (assuming you can read and write English), so the max score is 2400 instead of 1600. They also let you take the highest score in each section to get a "composite" score. (That's how my daughter got a 2400.)
he never got 1317 on his SAT
Maybe 13 in math and 17 in reading
A hard thing to do without AA supplemented by a lot of additional improper influence.
If he fell off the math wagon that early, he didn't even get to basic high school algebra. That means he was totally lost in chemistry and physics, both of which are profoundly math based. Even more important, it means he's never even been qualified to have a responsible layman's discussion about any scientific or financial topics that are at least heavily math influenced.
Indeed, it probably means he never got into, and never paid any real attention in, any college level science courses. Those, as I can say from personal experience in taking ten credit hours of geology, are where a student begins to realize that science, at its edges, especially earth science, is highly disputatious, with many well qualified scientists bitterly arguing over many vital points. From that a student learns to take politically driven absolute declarations of scientific “fact” in popular journals, like declarations about the superstition of anthropogenic global warmming, with a box car full of salt.
The Illegal, being deeply math challenged, and mostly stoned during high school, was also a science ignoramus. Now this vile poseur tries to preach to us about vital scientific issues, actuarial insurance issues, and math based budget accounting issues when he is less informed than most ordinary high school graduates. He's never even had the education necessary to make an informed layman's delusion regarding the many issues on which he's fraudulently claimed to be a great intellect. No wonder he hides his records so fanatically.
Actually, when Obama took the SATs, a perfect score would have been 1600....800 math, 800 language.
My kids scored over 1250 and those were considered pretty great scores.
7 th grade is a stretch. I don’t remember what grade I learned.how to add 2+2 but Obama has shown that is beyond his comprehension.
Man, he is good! He knows just the right things to say to appeal to his base.
I’m half a year younger than Obama. I’m pretty darn sure SAT scores were multiples of 10 back then so where does 1317 come from? Average of three tests? You’d probably just remember the the highest.

1300 was respectable, quite good but no way would it get you into an Ivy League by itself - for an athlete (esp. football) or minority or legacy or celebrity, sure.
1550 did not get me into an Ivy League - the equivalent, yes.
I was about to say the same thing. As a matter of fact, I don’t believe that Obama could have scored a 1350. I’d like to see some proof. He’s just not that smart. A 1350 would have gotten a Black student into any school in the country. The schools didn’t need government ordered affirmative action to force them to admit well qualified Black students, they were hungry for them.
Well....I got into an Ivy with a little over 1300 back in the early 1980s with the old SAT test. I was not an athlete, or a legacy, lol, but there must have been something wrong with me:)
Which tells me Michelle is a dimbulb also.
