yea it would've been cool, but the only thing I use my score for nowadays is to prove people wrong on TD when they call me a liar. it has no bearing on my life in any way now.

Someone start a GRE scores thread. Then we can get serious. Pre late 2011 scores only.

I am guessing this turned into a typical OT ACT thread ?

I scored a 30 and then a 31 on my 2nd try.

Ever since Iowa Tests, I've usually done well with standardized tests.

My brother got a 1600 on the sat and if I did that I would probably just post pics every time a thread like this came up and it would be awesome. Maybe I can go home find his score sheet somewhere and pass it off as mine

I'm really enjoying all of the "I know a guy who got 19 and is a genius, and a dumbass who got a 35".

Clearly the exam has some merit, and statistically getting a higher score is a decent indicator of success in college. One random example doesn't mean much.

I don't have pics of my scores. 29 really doesn't scream lie.

Factoring in the consideration that people with low scores will post in lower numbers than people with better scores, I don't think mid 20's to low 30's is unreasonable or cause to assume everyone is lying.

I love these threads .. Especially the ones that claim 30+ that can't form a complete, grammatically correct sentence in the post they're claiming this score ..

I call bullshite on a lot of these 31+ claims .. The national percentage of people that have scored that, combined, in the last decade is less than about 3% .. yet we'll have 30% of the posts in these threads claiming that BS ..

It's like the 40 time threads that dumb fricks claim sub 4.6 times AFTER you point out the minuscule percentage of sub 4.6s that were run at the last 10 NFL combines TOTAL ...

My brother made a 16 and is now a lawyer making over 120k a year. ACT scores don't mean shite.

Go to a community college, get your GPA up so you can get big scholarships for when you go to a major university and you'll be fine.

25 no prep and got into the school I wanted. Didn't care to retake.

My brother got a 34 and a I have a cousin that got a 35. That cousin works a crap job in Chicago and has 0 ambition.

I had a 25 composite in 7th grade.
The last time I took it...10th grade I think. I made a 31 composite. 35 in English. 33 in either science or social studies. My math brought me down that time.

There was only one or two people to claim a 30+, and one of them posted a pic.

We seem to always be here. Me giving the benefit of the doubt, you calling BS.

Most people take it once .. Sure .. If you take it 3 or 4 times, eventually the blind squirrel finds a nut ..

Damn. I graduated from Barbe with over 350 and we only had 3 or 4 get over 30. I was the only guy to score higher than 30 in my class.
