I qualify for #1 (36 ACT) and #2 (2350/2400 SAT). Downvote all you want but it’s true.

Back in the day, I think a 35 was the highest composite score you could get, although you could score a 36 in math, english, etc.

The SAT was unnecessary in LA if you knew a state school was in your future! But at the time, 1600 was the highest score.

I made a 32 on the ACT but TBH I think I caught a unusually easy test version. I took the SAT and didn't do as well.

I expect much truth in this thread. Go ahead and ask OT to state height and income too.

Made a 24 as a sophomore on first try.

Good enough for NCAA, so one and done.

Here’s the rub. The OT has a collection of minds. Some are dumb as hell.
Some are dumb as hell but stupid smart on certain subject. But what you have, is a collection .
And a collection will be infinitely smarter than any one man because it forces 1, people to present their hypotheses and 2, criticism of those hypotheses.

My ex made a 17 on her ACT. Made straight A's throughout college in a very difficult science field. She caused two other straight A students to make their only B's in college when she made 100 on 6 straight difficult organic chemistry classes. The professor "curved" his grades by adding points to the highest grade to make it 100. But since she made 100, no one ever had points added in the class that session.

Yeah, she was hated.

Point being, standardized testing is needed, but not always a good indicator of success.

Smart enough to know that the grammar in your question is lacking an article that functions as both an adjective and an adverb, depending on how it's being used.

You tell us what you scored first then we can tell you we scored one point more.

There's no chance you scored a 35 composite, you simply don't have the brain power. Maybe a 35 on one section.

4) 1875 on GRE (1994-2001)


This. I only applied to the one PhD program I wished to attend, but received multiple offers from other programs after the exam. It worked out ok, I guess. All tuition and fees paid for plus a competitive stipend.
