<p>I inferred it statistically using the following chart. Feel free to diminish the inference. It’s not that important. What’s important is that the number is very small. From this chart (<a href=“http://professionals.collegeboard.com/profdownload/SAT-Percentile-Ranks-by-Gender-Ethnicity-2009.pdf[/url]”>Higher Education Professionals | College Board), only 1% of African American students score above a 700 for each (independently) of the three sections. That’s 1871 students who score above a 700 for math, 1871 more for reading, and then 1871 more for writing. The total number of African American students to score a 700 or above on any one section is 5614 (it was actually 1871 and a third if you’re wondering where that extra person comes from). I would assume that the number of students scoring a 700 or above on all three sections is AT LEAST 1/3 lower, making the number 3743 students. I would imagine its more like half, but I have no data for that. So, definitely more than the number I posted and I recant that.</p>
<p>So, 3% of SAT-taking African American students score a 700 or above on any one section. I wish I could find a data set showing the total scores.</p>
