Peter Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Slacker. Seriously, the fact that he is smart has a lot to do with his success. Actually, he scored a 48 (out of 50).
The Senator Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Actually, he scored a 48 (out of 50). That's my understanding too - he skipped one question, and had one incorrect answer.
Jobu Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Is 1580 a good SAT score? This SAT score means that you scored better than 58.1% of test takers. Total Percentile: 58.1% Male Percentile: 56.0% Female Percentile: 60.0% In 2006, 16,555 students scored 1580 on the SAT. There were 1,376,745 test takers in 2006.
CA OC Bills Fan Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Is 1580 a good SAT score? This SAT score means that you scored better than 58.1% of test takers. Total Percentile: 58.1% Male Percentile: 56.0% Female Percentile: 60.0% In 2006, 16,555 students scored 1580 on the SAT. There were 1,376,745 test takers in 2006. Prior to May 2005, the maximum score was 1600. It was raised to 2400 at that time. The average score was around 1000 before the score was raised. 1580 is virtually perfect in both math and verbal. According to Wikipedia, scoring 1540 means you've scored better than 99.5% of test takers. No stats on 1580 but a perfect 1600 is better than 99.93% of test takers.
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Same score as me. Maybe I can be the next Bills QB.
buffaloaggie Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Ya but what did Brad Smith get? I doubt Brad Smith would get close to 1580 with the current three sections. I think being a Harvard grad in itself without knowing his Wonderlic and SAT scores tells you our QB is a smart mofo. They need to have a week of NFL Jeopardy.

If that were the case, the actual percentage would be 98.7975%.
Koufax Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Just for clarification for those who took the test before the 1994 changes, a 1580 after 1994 is not like a 1580 before, but it is still nice to have the smartest guy in the league on our team.
The Wei 44 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Cool that he was an econ major - I have a PhD in econ but am nowhere near as smart as he is. Let's hope the first two games are just the beginning of an excellent season for him and the rest of the squad!
#34fan Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 He was three points away from losing to a team whose COMBINED SAT SCORE wasn't 1580!
C.Biscuit97 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 He was three points away from losing to a team whose COMBINED SAT SCORE wasn't 1580! Quality stuff.
Kelly the Dog Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) Mizzou doesn't accept the SAT; it's too dumb for their high standards. I know this has become kind of a running gag, but Brad Smith is very smart. He was working on his graduate degree in economics when he was drafted. He got a business degree from Mizzou and was named to the Big 12 All Academic team. Edited September 19, 2011 by Kelly the Fair and Balanced Dog

NoSaint Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 (edited) I pulled a 1600 and got a 44 walking into a surprise wonderlic in a bschool class.... I'm curious the justification on the fact he finished several minutes early, but had a blank. Otherwise I give much credit. Both are simply a matter of processing information that you are confident with very efficiently while under pressure at that level, and of course a little bit of luck. If you have an arm you are in good jumping off point. I do not have any semblance of an arm. Edited September 20, 2011 by NoSaint

Bills!Win! Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 Actually, he scored a 48 (out of 50). OMG CUT HIM NOWNOWNOWNOWNWO RALPH IS CHEAP
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 20, 2011 Posted September 20, 2011 That SAT score is nuts. It really is. Meh. At Ivy league schools that's relatively common place. What's really special about Fitz IMO is that he's smart AND wears it humbly so he is able to find common ground and get along with everyone. As Perry Fewell said when asked how much of a geek Fitz was: "HAHAHAHAHA, That's really funny!" I like how he gently pokes fun at himself in his pressers. "Coach is learning to respect my speed on the outside" "He's a young receiver. I've got to talk to him. He's not supposed to say that. Beautiful throw, beautiful catch, just like we practiced"
