Hempy jelly.

I got dealt a tricky hand.
I was a jew in Christendom before the civil rights act.


I'm lucky, all in all.
I got 99%Ile gifts in some areas the lurkers don't even know exist.
188 does not tell the tale.
Being 2nd in corps of cadets without knowing much math was about perception and doing it fast..

I can do things the lurkers don't think possible. Would have been burned at the stake.
Not done yet.

I am certainly not jealous, otto. But I'm glad life has worked out for you.

I took it as a 7th grader and made a 22. Took it again as a junior and made a 30.

I took it in 7th grade and got an 18. I improved it to a 28 by my junior year in high school. Most of the improvement for me came on the math and science portions.

My own anectodotal evidence shows an improvement of 8-10 points between 7th grade and 11th grade, assuming proper class selection in high school.

If you buy a TIPS Duke magnet, kill yourself.

My son did. He scored a 22, but he has a few years of high school learning before he takes a bite of that apple when it counts.

18 in 7th and I had a 0.something one semester at LSU so don’t get your hopes up.

I did it and got an award in the Duke TIP program for making a 24 in science. Overall made a 18. Highest I ever scored was a 28. 19 at that age is very good your average high school graduate probably makes around that

I made a 3. My school counselor told me a drunk monkey could make at least a 4.

I made a 17 in 7th grade. It did not go up much over the next 5 years.
