You realize you have to adjust for "cultural bias", right, dude?

>An SAT score of 1230 is NOT the 96.9 percentile, despite what you claimed

I think he's in his 60s. The scoring system's been adjusted in the last 15 years or so and probably before that too. You can pretty much add something like 50-70 points to the scores we got in our day to get the equivalent in today's scores. That would explain a good portion of the discrepancy between his 96% and Wikipedia's 88%.

It looks like in 1966 a 1230 would've been around 93-94%, depending on the subject split. In his particular year, I don't know.
