[quote=Anonymous]One of my closest friends at HSYP is the daughter of a very successful M.D. who makes tons of money. She's one of 3 kids. Back in the 1980s when perfect scores were even more rare, she got a perfect score on the SAT. Then when she decided to apply to law school she got a perfect score. She's one of those people who can solve a Rubik's cube blindfolded. Neither of her two sisters even comes close to her abilities despite the fact that they were all raised by the same mom and dad with the same resources. I come from a working class family and I scored well on the SAT (nowhere near my friend though!) and none of my 3 siblings came close to my score. My friend and I now have sons who are a year apart. They each did decently on the SAT, with scores around 1300. We each have the resources to pay for all the things that supposedly ensure that wealthy kids will do well on these tests. I guess that's only true if you count a 1300 as a good score. [/quote]
