<p>Response to 68</p>
<p>The number for me is not 2400-- but 99+ percent. The chart your gave shows 7,219 with 99+ ranking.</p>
<p>For 99 percent or above – the number is 23,110. For 98 percentile, add another 16,000-18,000. And, each percentile increase thereafter only brings greater numbers.</p>
<p>So when your child comes home with 98 percentile numbers, understand the numbers ahead of him or her. Then think about the 96th percentile or so many other highly respectable test takers who may pale in comparison to a large number of the applicants.</p>
