What Does Your SAT Score Mean?

Of course, I am a graduate of Columbia University (BA 1974, Latin and Greek), so it’s true, as far as that goes. I believe that a score of 1400 or more also entitles you to join Mensa without further testing (when I joined, mumblety-mumble years ago) it did for me.

This score is nearly 36 years old now, however. Brain shrinkage and general mopery would account for the fact that I’m finding my Greek refresher course difficult and that I found Chinese absolutely devastating to what few brain cells still function up there.

    When I’ve returned to study it has taken a while to get my brain in gear, but suspect that languages are amongst the things impacted seriously by ageing anyway.

    That said, I’d like to study Philosophy, which is Hard, but I will have picked up scads of basic concepts fronm the social sciences, I imagine. and it hardly matters what my marks would be.

    Good luck with your choice of brain food!
