<p>CareerJournal</a> | Employers Might Ask For Your SAT Scores</p>

<p>Bump…</p>

3

<p>omg I might get into Burger King!!! =D =D</p>

4

<p>I’m only screwed if they set the bar to 1500+ instead of 1400+ (which may be likely).</p>

5

<p>If they do, eff. I got 1490 >:[</p>

6

<p>1400+ is too competitive.</p>

<p>I’d say lower the bar to 1350 at least.</p>

7

<p>I’d be surprised if 50% of McDonald’s/BK employees have over 1200. That’s well above average, at least in my region.</p>

<p>for NASA maybe :b</p>

<p>It depends on the job, I would assume</p>

10

<p>

As someone who didn’t do so well on the SAT I think that is just ridiculous; wouldn’t want to work for such a place anyway.</p>

11

<p>: [</p>

12

<p>Well, of course, the people that don’t like this trend are, for the most part, the people that didn’t do so hot on the SATs anyway. I wonder what some of the high achievers think?</p>

13

<p>SAT has nothing to do with employability. (which apparently isn’t even a word.)</p>

14

<p>is this really careerjournal? the link redirects me to some shady ip address and not an actual domain.</p>

<p>[url=<a href=“http://208.144.115.170/recruiters/workingwith/20031030-dunham.html]http://208.144.115.170/recruiters/workingwith/20031030-dunham.html[/url”>http://208.144.115.170/recruiters/workingwith/20031030-dunham.html]http://208.144.115.170/recruiters/workingwith/20031030-dunham.html[/url&lt;/a&gt;]&lt;/p&gt;

15

<p>^ I clicked and it worked for me.</p>

16

<p>yeah but you’d think the real career journal would have an actual domain name. maybe someone made a fake version of career journal and started posting fake articles.</p>

<p>of course i could be completely off on that but seriously, what kind of website calls itself “208.144.115.170?”</p>

17

<p>Hmm, you’re right. It’s on the bar when you replace the link.
Idk now…
It’s obviously kind of weird for someone to ask you for your SAT scores in order to determine your ability to handle a job.
Whether the difficulty of the job varies, they should be looking at the student’s potential growth after college.
But the site says it was written from a Wall Street Journal.</p>

18

<p>would you have to pay to send a score report? what would their SAT code be? Would they trust you to truthfully tell your scores?</p>

19

<p>^I’m not paying any more money to Collegeboard.*</p>

<p>*with the exception of the fees for the AP tests I will take in May grumble grumble </p>

20

<p>You should see the state of, um, my state’s budget crisis. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>But seriously, you’re lucky.</p>
