Nowadays I think HS grade inflation is more of a culprit (in regular and AP courses) than WHOO HOO I IZ IN COLLEGE TIME TO PARTEE. Not to mention there are a lot more courses on how to ace the SATs.

Do sororities look at SAT scores? I have no idea--it's been a few years since I wrote a rec, and I don't remember providing mine in my Panhel apps.
I also used UT as an example because it's just the top 10%--you can go to a crappy HS, have a 4.0 and be admitted regardless of your test scores. That goes to say if you're just outside of the 10% and you scored a 1600, you're not guaranteed admission.
Even though people are pissed off about it, it looks like other states have considered that same option.
