SAT 1600
Valedictorian (12 pt scale - don't remember)
Marching Band, Theater, variety of clubs

- generally clueless about the college process, no parent help

Purdue - accepted
Northwestern - accepted
Michigan State - accepted
MIT - accepted

Only applied to MIT because a teacher told me too. I had no idea about it then.
Don't know that I'd be accepted today - too random.

Y'all still remember your GPA and SAT score from three or four decades ago?!

I don't remember. I graduated in 2002 from high school. Obviously I know where I went to college, but aside from remembering I'd be satisfied if I broke 1300 on the SATs, don't know any of my stats.

I was accepted at Dartmouth same time but with SAT score more than 200 points lower. No hooks. (Also rejected by Princeton).
