<p>^^ yeah the 2000 barrier seems more plausible.</p>
<p>From personal experience as high high high SAT scorer, i had around a 2100 in 9th grade and then my scores stagnated for 2 years until summer before junior year. A 1700 to 2200 would seem like an ungodly increase for such a short period of time on a standardized test designed to be reasonably reliable in the short run.</p>
