The 75th percentile for Columbia admissions is:
Reading 760
Math 780
Writing 750

That is the new testing methods.

With the old high mark of 1600 total, it was possible and very common to get a perfect score of 1600 and still not be accepted to Columbia and other Ivy league schools.

I'd have to wonder if that listing for Palin is accurate.  That is a very poor score...
The average score that year was around 1,000.

A score of 850 on the SAT would have corresponded to about a 17 on the ACT.  I don't even think you're allowed to play college athletics with that score.

it does give insight into the inherent intellectual capability- and somewhat into the focus and discipline of a person.

i.e. some clever people who dont study still do quite well, and other not so clevers who work hard can do very well.

BUT, if you do crap, you are either dumb/average and slack, or work really hard and a thick head.

You dont get smarter as you get older- you learn more, but you dont necessarily retain it. Thats why IQ tests apply from age 15 onwards and dont change anty more than 5% throughout an adult's life- at least until senility.

So in summary, if your IQ indicated that you're a moron when you do your SATs, then you'll always be a moron.

i'm no palin fan.  there was a guy who scored a 13 on the act, made it into college (colorado state univ) and was a complete f up (pot smokers ala wackdaddy and his female ghost) but grad.  prof thought he wasnt a focused individual but had talent.  guy ended up completing his ph.d. (immunology) and is respected guy in his field in colorado.

you cant count on sats/acts.  if there are things going on (esp negative) in a person's life...then a bad score usually comes from lack of prep.  basically...someone just walks in and takes it.

850-900 is probably equal to at 13 act.  i took the act once in 11th grade and got a 19, didnt bother with it again. in 1982 a 13 would have gotten you into a public university which it did in her case.  all this BS aside she has done extremely well to become a governor of a state...no matter how small.  the vp nonsense is on mccain for bring this lady into the s##t to try and steal an election for his last story before he kicks the bucket.

basically with an 850 she has outdone all the ivy league grads on this site and millionaires.  think about that for moment.  has anyone on here done more than this woman?  :-\

When you can run a city or a state and end up being chosen for vice-president, then you can lecture somebody on how much of an "idiot" Sarah Palin is.

it does give insight into the inherent intellectual capability- and somewhat into the focus and discipline of a person.

i.e. some clever people who dont study still do quite well, and other not so clevers who work hard can do very well.

You post this mess, yet you have the gall to call someone else a "moron". IQ tests don't mean JACK in the real world. There are many people with high IQs who can barely balance a checkbook. They have lots of "book" smarts but their common sense is out the window.

All Palin has done is graduate from high school and college, become a two-time mayor, and become the FIRST female governor of Alaska. In less than a month, she could become the first female VP in history. What she's accomplished politically in such a short time is, by any standard, impressive.

Hard work and tenacity will get you farther in life than a high IQ.

If I'm correct and remember...Buffet did his Masters at Columbia.  Didnt Trump leverage family Real Estate to get his start?

Anyway...she has maxed out her potential to a certain extent.  Couldnt see her as Gov of NY...just not happening.  Same thing goes for VP of the USA.  It's an insane thought.  Personally...I think alot of things have happen for her based on her looks.  You can see this with the current election.  People are completely looking past her true depth.  Again...for kids who are borderline and get s##t about underachieving she is a person they can look at for inspiration.

Why would I lie about my SAT scores??? I studied hard in school plus I took SAT prep as an elective in high school.  I spent an entire year doing SAT tests..... ;D

Simply put.....If you cannot comprehend basic English and Math skills, then you obviously either are stupid or you spent to much time being the most popular kid in school rather than study which I believe Palin is the latter.

She eventually cleaned up her act down the line a graduated however I can't see how she can botch so many interviews when her degree is in communications and she worked as a journalist and news reporter herself.

It simply defies the laws of time and space that she can be in this position but our current President is just as stupid.

I dont know who told you a perfect score of 1600 (on old test) was "very common", but it is not only uncommon but nearly impossible to get. Less than 200 students per year, out of 300K, received perfect 1600 SAT test scores. A 1600 SAT score is a guaranteed admission to ANY University in America. Bar none.

It would be like getting a perfect score on the LAST-180. You get a 180 LSAT and you will be adimitted to ANY law school in America-even if you had a 1.5 GPA.

Less than 200 students per year, out of 300K, received perfect 1600 SAT test scores. A 1600 SAT score is a guaranteed admission to ANY University in America. Bar none.

It would be like getting a perfect score on the LAST-180. You get a 180 LSAT and you will be adimitted to ANY law school in America-even if you had a 1.5 GPA.

I didn't say that a perfects score on the test was very common, I said it was common to not be accepted to schools with a perfect score.  I know a female with a perfect score that went to Brown because she wasn't accepted to Harvard or Yale. 

This is for grad school, but here's an example of a student in Physics:

GPA in Major: 4.00
Overall GPA: 4.00
Length of Degree: 4 Years
Position in Class: Top
Type of Student: non-handicapped middle class white American male

GRE Scores:
Q: 800
V: 770
W: 4.5 (was originally a 5.5 but I asked ETS for a rescore... my advice: don't try that)
P: 990

Perfect GPA, Perfect GPA in major, PERFECT Physics GRE score....check out some of the questions on that exam...

This fella was rejected by both MIT and Harvard. 
He got into Princeton, Stanford and CalTech, but even with a perfect GPA and perfect PGRE he was rejected by two top schools. 

Imagine if he had a 1.5 GPA to go with that perfect score.

Are u kidding me...Comparing a Obama smoking cigs on campaign trail and the VP hopeful's sat score that equals that of a 9th grader are apples and oranges...you know that

You gotta be kidding me.  You think an SAT score that someone took when they were 16 or 17 years old is relevant?

He used weed and coke. 

I can't tell you how ridiculous I think this is.  I do a lot of interviewing and I have never asked a prospective candidate what their SAT score was, nor do I care, particularly if they have a history of accomplishment.

The 75th percentile for Columbia admissions is:
Reading 760
Math 780
Writing 750

That is the new testing methods.

With the old high mark of 1600 total, it was possible and very common to get a perfect score of 1600 and still not be accepted to Columbia and other Ivy league schools.

I'd have to wonder if that listing for Palin is accurate.  That is a very poor score...
The average score that year was around 1,000.

A score of 850 on the SAT would have corresponded to about a 17 on the ACT.  I don't even think you're allowed to play college athletics with that score.

Yep Kevin Garnett couldn't get a 18 when he was in High School, that's why he went straight to the pros...

i'm no palin fan.  there was a guy who scored a 13 on the act, made it into college (colorado state univ) and was a complete f up (pot smokers ala wackdaddy and his female ghost) but grad.  prof thought he wasnt a focused individual but had talent.  guy ended up completing his ph.d. (immunology) and is respected guy in his field in colorado.

you cant count on sats/acts.  if there are things going on (esp negative) in a person's life...then a bad score usually comes from lack of prep.  basically...someone just walks in and takes it.



I count it when she cant do a simple interview that makes her look incompetent.  Then seeing this test score explains to us why...

Somehow americans voted bush into office twice. What does that tell you. ::)

It tells me that the so-called smart liberals failed to produce a candidate that could beat Bush.....TWICE!!!

And, despite having a huge monetary and media edge, they're in a tooth-and-nail battle with McCain.

Crying about how dumb your opponents are, WHEN YOU LOSE TO THOSE OPPONENTS MULTIPLE TIMES, makes you look childish.

Why would I lie about my SAT scores??? I studied hard in school plus I took SAT prep as an elective in high school.  I spent an entire year doing SAT tests..... ;D

Simply put.....If you cannot comprehend basic English and Math skills, then you obviously either are stupid or you spent to much time being the most popular kid in school rather than study which I believe Palin is the latter.

She eventually cleaned up her act down the line a graduated however I can't see how she can botch so many interviews when her degree is in communications and she worked as a journalist and news reporter herself.

It simply defies the laws of time and space that she can be in this position but our current President is just as stupid.



Never underestimate the power of the 'stupid vote'. Palin, at least politically speaking, is a smart choice for the Republicans. Nearly every stupid white will vote for her. She locks up the gun nuts, religious nuts and gets the stupid women.

There are a lot of stupid people in America, and a good portion of them vote.

I'm saying what the hell does it have to do with today?

If you want to test somebody's intelligence, give them an IQ test.

Don't rely on an SAT from High School for Christ's sake.


IQ does NOT measure intelligence, ...it simply measures capacity & potential.

hahahahab bullshit.  But lets say its true.  then you are proof the SAT scores don't mean shit.  And who cares what her SAT scores are.  Isn't she a Governor.  She must be doing something okay.  She is a nominee for VP to isn't she.  I wonder what Trumps or Buffett SAT scores were.  I bet Stallone and Arnold had just huge scores ::)  Man people are reaching these days

Buffet went to Columbia and Trump went to University of Pennsylvania, Wharton school of business.  ::) Gotta be excellent students to get into those schools even if you are from a rich family.

People in government should be intelligent. SAT scores show comprehension and critical thinking skills. Why should a person have the chance to be president if they have difficulty reading simple passages and doing world problems?  :-\

And books smarts = real life smarts. People who score higher on these types of exams on average make a lot more money than people who don't. End of story. Sure you can cite examples of people, especially athletes and business men, but they are far and in between. People who have degrees and big grades accomplish much more on average and make for a better society. Look at how Palin couldn't even address the questions directed towards her during her debate with Biden. You wanna know one of the major issues of this country? It isn't terrorism, but incredible stupidity on part of the general population, and collectively it makes for a shittier America.

Imagine someone with a 800 something score trying to read an intelligence report.. Scary.
