<p>scores since '67 under the renormed scores (apples to apples for data, but as noted previously, a much larger segment of the HS graduates now take the SAT)</p>

<p>ps -- yes, Achievement/Subject tests have been recentered as well. For example, in Math 1 (which many of us probably took), a 790 (old) is now 800; a 600 (old) is now 620.... History (American) was recentered from 500 to 550. Writing went from 500 to 560!</p>

<p>Mackinaw - You are right about the scoring. In fact, I was a bit puzzled when my son started the college process as to why everyone's scores ended in a zero. Mine didn't. </p>

<p>How many of you recall those special pencils necessary for computer scoring? I wonder what happened to all of them?</p>
