A Word about SAT
By the way,
SAT↗ used to stand for Scholastic Aptitude Test. Then was changed to
Scholastic Assessment Test by the movement of social thinking, known as
Political Correctness↗. The Aptitude in Scholastic Aptitude basically means
brain size. So, if you have a low score, it implicates that you are a moron,
which does have some scientific soundness. However, today, it is wrong to call a
cripple cripple or a idiot idiot. Also the test and the scoring has mutated
significantly since its inception in USA 1926.
