The only thing I remember about SAT's was having my first taste of whiskey in my friend's car in the parking lot while we waited for them to let us in.

My ex did her ACTs on a hangover. I forgot how well she did, but she's an idiot, so I'm guessing not well.

Sigur Ros and Radiohead appeared in a question on my PSAT exam. Either the people over there want us to get low scores or they like to flaunt how they're allowed to listen to good music because they aren't taking the test.

I took the PSAT a few weeks back, and I had a question with Sigur Ros and Radiohead.

What kind of PSAT's that have remotely interesting questions did you guys take?

I'm pretty sure SAT's are scored to 2400 now, so that chart is kinda flawed since it's based off the old SAT scoring system.

That's true, but most of the top schools in the country (Ivy League schools and whatnot) still only take the original two scores, so the 1600 scoring is not an entirely archaic scale.

Probably the greatest SAT experience ever.

I don't know if you guys have seen this, but it's interesting, if entirely pointless.

SAT scores related to musical preference.

I saw this a while ago (yearish?). The way it was conducted was that he looked at the facebook network statistics (when facebook still let users see them) for a number of colleges to see what the most popular entries for "favorite music" among students at that college. He then compared that to the average SAT admitted to each college.

The reason why "classical" is lower than "Beethoven" and "jazz" is lower than "Frank Sinatra" is because apparently people who put entire genres as their tags instead of artists went to less prestigious schools. Interesting phenomenon.
Keep in mind, this is before facebook changed everything to becoming "fans" of artists and whatnot.

Heh. I got a 31 on my ACT last year which would translate to 1360–1390 SAT score... and I'm currently listening to a Suicide Silence album. Not exactly Beethoven eh? :3

[Mystlyfe77]

Listening to Suicide Silence is not something I would brag about.

[Cody_D165]

Eh, I could really care less. Just showing how inaccurate that chart can be.

I'm glad that you have the ability to care about it less than you currently do. It just shows how much you really do care. <3
