ACT

A kid in my graduating class pulled off a solid 6. He got a 0 on math. I thought you had to actually TRY to do that bad. He tried his best.
 
At ISU, only National Merit Scholars get to ride the money train, meaning the PSAT's matter much more than the ACT. I did well on the ACT and got good grades at ISU, but that led to hardly any scholarship money. Meanwhile I had friends that were National Merit Scholars that jacked around and didn't do that well grade-wise, but were getting a free education.
