[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are roughly 2 million SAT takers and 1.4 million ACT takers. A proportion take both. Assuming there are 3 million test takers. 1% yields 30,000 who are in the 99th percentile. With superscoring, that number at least doubles, so one is looking at 60,000 students scoring in the 99th percentile.[/quote] About 60k, I agree , probably more, at 1510+ or 34 which is about the 99th%ile. That is more than enough to fill all T15 freshman classes. Because each takes about 25% under that due to institutional needs and hooks, and recently all the TO BS, the 99th percenters spread to many more schools, but are only a majority at the topmost schools.
