I was one of those students that tested poorly on the SAT. I was a straight A student and knew how to study and take tests in various courses but was horrible at standardized testing. My brother was the same way. I succeeded in college despite this - getting into veterinary school at Texas A&M on early admissions which was very difficult to do. My brother, who made only 1 B in college,graduated Summa cum laude in computer/software engineering. I went to undergrad with several of my high school friends who were merit scholars and they were very mediocre students, one almost failing out. I truly believe standardized tests are useless and do not show what a student can really accomplish.
