SAT scores are linked to success your first year in college I believe. And I'd really like to know who it is that's not smart but has great social abilities to get where they are. I don't mean the people who pretty much inherit money, success, and fame/notoriety but the ones that end up making it. What do people consider a measure of intelligence? I think this is funny but maybe not really a topic for greeklife. Who knows.

And mathematical and science texts aren't just logical steps. If they are, you're taking joke classes. If I don't see another frigging proof for years I'll be happy because they pretty much tell you 1+1=2 and give you one defining statement at the end and expect you to come up with all the steps in between.

--And before you laugh, proving 1+1=2 was actually a page long assignment.
