I&#x27;d agree with you if the SAT had harder math on it.  If I had to do calculus now, after not using it for 20 years, I&#x27;d get a lot of questions wrong.<p>But the SAT doesn&#x27;t really go beyond basic algebra, and after getting an engineering degree, that feels burned into my ROM.  I retook the GRE over a decade after my last math class, without studying, and still crushed it.  Certain skills (reading quickly, parsing questions correctly, working backwards from multiple choice answers) don&#x27;t leave you.
