[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Years ago an admissions officer told me that like braces, a high test score mostly just tells you that the family has money. [/quote] What a stupid statement. There is free pre in Khan Academy. You don’t need money to prepare for the test.[/quote] No. The PP's comment is spot on and even confirmed by the College Board. Students from families with an annual income of more than $200,000 scored an average of 388 points higher on the SAT than those from families making less than $20,000 annually. SAT test preparation / tutoring is $250M of a billion dollar industry. Khan Academy receives millions of dollars for SAT preparation services.
