Broke 1,000 in 7th grade.......did much better 1,400+ in high school. Meanwhile, throughout HS and college, I couldn't get good grades to save my life. And no....I wasn't bored or lazy.
I am an absolute believer that these kind of tests measure only one thing....how good you are at taking standardized tests. As a matter of fact, I taught a prep course for a while and used to blow people away when I could show them the right answer to certain verbal questions without seeing the question.
High scores. Low scores. Neither really matters. There are much more important measures of success.
(P.S. -- Went to Bowdoin....where test scores are not required.)
