[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The number from a 2022 Common App report: 76,747 students applied to college with ACT/SAT scores >1500 (99%) [/quote] Wow. I assume the number is so high due to superscoring? This is an eye-opening figure for sure. [/quote] Yes, because of superscoring and many coached kids take the test numerous times to get to 1500, superscored over two tests or from taking it several times until they reach that score on the final take. I'm in higher ed and have access to data from the Common App and Slate (for research purposes) and people would be surprised how big the pool of 1500/34+ pool is, especially in the last 10-15 years. [/quote] Forgot to add that it was close to 90K in 2024![/quote]
