<p>Yes, the percentiles at top level scores are inflated by ~.004 % assuming that 68,000 of the test takers were not college bound (in mandated states, which have about 350,000 total test takers). So the scores are worth about 10 points less than their percentile conversions to the SAT. Note that the definition of college bound is meaningless anyway (people take the SAT all the time without being “college bound”) and 68,000 people is probably a huge over estimation too.</p>
<p>In conjunction, theres a concordance table between ACT and SAT scores that lowers the ACT conversion by about 20 points per score (the extra 10 is just there for no reason) on the SAT because the Collegeboard thought that would be a good idea:
