Atralis 10/12/21 8:21:33 PM #18:	FL81 posted... Remember kids, success in higher education isn't about intelligence or hard work! All you need are rich parents! Having educated parents is a bigger factor. People that grow up in an environment with two college educated professional parents don't realize how much of a bonus they have on basic tests like the SATs. I dropped out of high school and joined the Army after slacking and not doing any school work as a junior or senior. I scored in the top 1 or 2% on the SAT, GED, and ASVAB mostly just because I grew up with a lawyer for a mom and a mechanical engineer for a Dad that met while they were both in grad school at UC Berkeley. <cite>Atralis posted [p:958974201] in ACT score ...
