<p>Initially, I had the impression that the number of students who got a 2400 on the SAT is actually down a bit in class of 2010 from the graduating class before, but I was actually misremembering from one of the years with a two-section SAT test on which 1600 was the peak score. This year's number of scores of 2400 is the highest yet reported. </p>

<p>cmon class of 2010!!! WE CAN DO IT!</p>

3

<p>Don’t you mean the numbers are up? I thought only 297 kids aced the SAT from the class of '09.</p>

4

<p>Thank you for posting.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Are you sure? If I remember correctly, the number was 297 for the class of 2009 and 294 for the class of 2008.</p>

5

<p>silverturtle, take down your guide…Too many kids are acing this thing and it’s starting to feel less special!! ;)</p>

6

<p>Yes, I’m sure the number of 2400 scorers will break 450 this year because of silverturtle’s guide. ;)</p>

7

<p>I will have to check the previous year’s figures. For class of 2010, it is 382 students reported to have a score of 2400 sometime during high school, and for class of 2008, it was 294, while for 2009, it was 297. I will revise my thread-opening post. It’s odd that College Board keeps changing the URL formats for these reports.</p>

8

<p>dang, one kid from my school was one of the people who got a 2400 :O</p>

9

<p>10 kids from my school got 2400’s.</p>

10

<p>^ … What school do you go to?</p>

11

<p>…and they all seem to be members of CC.</p>

12

<p>let us be clear on this…does this mean 2400 in one sitting?</p>

13

<p>^ Yes, I believe so.</p>

14

<p>^^ Collegeboard doesn’t superscore SAT scores. Only colleges do. Collegeboard won’t compile your scores just for that particular purpose.</p>

15

<p>

</p>

<p>This would be interesting to figure to know.</p>

16

<p>I’m actually shocked that the number is that low – being on this board given me the impression that everyone and their brother are getting 2400s. I feel like less of a failure now.</p>

</p>

<p>LOL. I agree, it’s a big help. Still, the guide’s strength lies with the Writing section and general advice on college admissions. It’s not very in-depth with critical reading, and definitely not with mathematics. It’s still great stuff, though! :)</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>CC users are most certainly not the norm of typical applicants to top schools. They very often represent the best applicants in the pools. So don’t feel overwhelmed to see a kid on here whining about his 2350 SAT score - because for every one kid like that in the applicant pool, there are twenty kids who are in the 2000-2200 range. :)</p>

18

<p>“10 kids from my school got 2400’s.”</p>

<p>Damn, is that like one of those super competitive magnet schools, or is it just a really highly academic area?</p>

19

<p>Ten kids? woah.
And 382? My score suddenly seems not so great after all.</p>

20

<p>Well I feel a tiny bit better now. CC got me thinking that every person in the world outside of my school has a better SAT score than me, and now I look at this chart and see that I’m the 97th percentile. Meaning just 3 percent did better than me. It just happens that most of that three percent lives on this board.</p>
