A subject SAT is not the same thing as the SAT. One of my sons took these tests as part of the Hopkins youth programs which is hard to qualify for. The scores PROJECT how the kid will score on a percentile basis on the SAT. Let's be real clear here...it is NOT the SAT, and there are a lot of middle school districts that may have the equivalent of the JHU Center for Talented Youth. Being eligible to sit to take the subject SAT is a result of scoring above 88 percentile on the SSAT, which is an elementary to middle school standardized test for private schools. If some lacrosse schmoe ran one of these scores past an Ivy League admissions office, he'd be laughed at.
