[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree that SAT scores provide information, but not that much: [b]A group of students scoring 1550 are going to do slightly better, on average, than a group scoring 1500, [/b]but if you compare one 1500 student with one 1550 student, the odds that that 1550 student will do better are only a bit above 50 percent. Much more important is what they are interested in and how hard they work. A student who is passionate about English literature will be better off in a class full of students who are equally passionate and who read a lot for fun than a class full of kids with 1600 SAT scores whose dream is to go into consulting and get rich.[/quote] What does "do better" really mean? Lifetime W-2 income? Or Net worth?[/quote] Statistically, certainly yes. [/quote]
