- For whom are SAT or GRE an scores unreasonable estimate of IQ? Is
- there a minimum GPA which is a reasonable requirement for the use of
- SAT score estimation of IQ? For exmaple, would it be fare to judge the
- SAT score of someone who performed poorly in high school (and learned
- little) against the SAT score of an 'A' student for the assesment of
- IQ? Will the student with the higher IQ always have higher SAT scores?
