28 the first time, no prep and hungover. Thought I did horrible. Prepped for the next test, sober, thought I dominated it. 29.

25 composite on first attempt. Never took it again.

I got upper 20s on most things but a 19 in math and it drug my composite down.

26; above average, but had one category “language” or something that was 19 or something. It’s been awhile.

Back in the day, no prep course and such.

I was amazed at how much study my kids and their friends did for SAT.

31, twice. This was pre-TOPS days, and my GPA was shitty (because I didn't like to do homework), so LSU offered me about $ThreeFiddy per semester.

Good enough for a full ride to THE Mississippi State University, though.

Math was usually my lowest score (28 or 29 was my highest). I apparently didn't learn much more, because my math was around the 50th percentile on the GMAT and my verbal (or whatever) was something like 98th percentile. Which was fine, because my college GPA was high enough to still get into an MBA program.

Anyway, moral of the story here kids - just go ahead and frick off. It will probably all work out.

32 twice but I didn't know anything about prepping for it.

That was in the late 70's, scores have probably been inflated since then.

24 in 7th grade.

30 as a freshman, then 32 as a soph and tapped out.

Gods I was smart then. Don't mess with Mr. Booze.

13 then 14. when I was mid-30's it was determined that I had ADD - so this makes sense. I honestly couldn't stay focused.

22

Took it once without any sort of practice exams or anything like some of my classmates

I figure with some effort I could have scored a 24-26 or so. But I was already accepted into college so I didn’t try again

I took it 5 times. My scores were good enough to get me into college, but I wanted to get a certain score to get an extra stipend each semester (for 4 years) while in college. My scores were 21, 19, 21, 21, and then finally 23. Math and science were my strong areas. I hated reading when I was younger. Not that I couldn't read, it was just really boring to me.
