<p>You’re creating this false dichotomy where people with “lower” SAT scores are awesome and people with higher SAT scores are boring. There are plenty of people with higher scores who have done awesome things. SAT scores clearly are important, as shown by how high the median scores at top schools usually are. But I agree that high scores aren’t enough on their own. </p>
