<p>Seriously, how rare is this? I did a little search and found three examples. Do people who do this basically get auto-admitted to their first-choice school? I have this weird habit of browsing through amazing stats and test score just to be depressed.</p>

<p>damn..i worked my ass off and i am hoping to get 2100</p>
<p>this guy is cooool</p>

<p>Crazy.</p>
<p>well.. if you can pull off a perfect score on the sat wouldn't it stand to reason you could do the same on the act?</p>
<p>perfect scores still don't guarantee any admission</p>
<p>Don't forget my high school hoomie Jeff Nanney who not only has scored perfect on both tests once, but several times since he was a freshman!!</p>
<p>Actually one of my friends got a perfect score on the SAT but was deferred from Yale, but she's at Harvard now.</p>
<p>its not THAT hard to get a perfect score, but those people getting 1500+ at age 8 and already operating are really geniuses.</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the SAT is just the SAT and the ACT is just the ACT.</p>
<p>Harvard rejects 65% of perfect scorers!</p>
<p>They're bluffing.</p>

<p>wow . . . he's got it all . . . he even looks sorta hot in that photo.</p>
<p>ive never even heard of a perfect act...</p>
<p>Wait... if you got a perfect score on one, why would you even bother taking the other?!</p>
<p>Because people tend to be insane.</p>
<p>go plano east!!! even though i dont go to east...
jeff is a cool guy</p>
<p>wee go dallas school kids :)!! </p>
<p>ive heard of jeff too from my school friends who knew him somewhat.</p>
<p>Harvard is definately not bluffing. It is very reasonable to assume that a large portion of those perfect scorers, although good at taking exams, isn't EC-adept enough to enter Harvard. Personally, I know several 2350+ and one perfect scorer that were rejected by Harvard for precisely that reason.</p>
<p>2400 is not the ticket to everything.</p>
<p>Yeah Jeff was pretty popular among everyone. However, he is incredibly down to earth for some of his stature and pretty cool as well.</p>
<p>My son got perfect scores on the following on first try each: ACT, SAT, SAT II Math 2, AP Calc AB, AP Stat, with more scores coming. He’s mostly been homeschooled by the unschooling method, with a few years of public school, but his practice test (Duke TIP) were phenomenal based almost entirely on unschooling. He did not do formal schoolwork or take classes when unschooled.</p>
<p>What did silverturtle get on his ACT?</p>
