Son just got an 1140 SAT as a 10th Grader.

Sorta wonder what he can expect in the line of work with those kind of scores? Is it over for him even before it began?

The SAT tests some math he won't get to until he finishes sophomore year, so there's a little hope to be found there.

But on the whole?

I'd buy him a hi-viz vest right now.

Ya, the writing is pretty much scrapped unless a college wants that portion. No one relaly wants it tho so 1600 is the tops.

Did he take any preparation classes beforehand? Some people just need to learn their own specific techniques on how to retain information. The reason why so many people dislike school, is because a lot of the old learning techniques in the classroom aren't effective for a lot of people. (Ded fkn Srs)

Brah right now there's a huge issue with just have kids, especially males to even attend college. Educational standards are currently all fukked up and it's going to fukk up the next generation. Especially with the huge obsession of TikTok and YouTube. (Ded fkn Srs)

Maybe he didn't try too hard. That's how I was in school because I just didn't give a fuk. Could've been straight A if I actually did my homework LMFAO

they are racist.

Have you considered hiring him a tutor? It could potentially help some.

back in my day that score would get you into a state school with good grades. He'll be over 1200 by the time he is a senior, he'll be fine.























































he ain't going to Harvard tho.

Harvard is doing away with standardized tests.

Have him apply there and mention your big dick rep power.

Have him do a Kaplan or Princeton Review course. They can help with some tricks for those who cannot score well.

Scored a 1060 or some ****e on my SATs. Ended up as a registered PE in 3 states + DC so needless to say SAT only matters to college admission boards.

My first SAT was a 1600/2400 which is even worse than your son

After Taking SAT Prep I was able to get 2100/2400 which is like a 1400

He has 2 years to take the SATs again. Have him take a prep course. He can easily bump that to 1400. Srs.

I was very hard to motivate at that age.
Nah, he's pretty happy with himself. Whole time i was just dead inside and didn't have the nerve to tell him he'd prolly be flipping signs or slinging burgers somewhere. Can't afford a tutor in Biden's America either.
