[quote=Anonymous]Test scores are definitely inflated. I got a 1400 and had very good grades and knew I would get into Ivies without much problem. I also took four APs as a junior, which was not very common. I got a 4, 3, and 2 (didn't take the fourth test). I didn't think twice about reporting them as just taking that many tests as a junior was great, and the 2 was in BC Calc, which was extremely hard, especially for a junior. No one took AP as a sophomore. My kid goes to a private school with no AP and I am amazed at the number of APs at an early age at other schools. Kids today are definitely more motivated and smarter, but not that much smarter. They really should revise the SAT scoring.[/quote]
