I read that he scored in the 1200s. If memory serves, this is still higher than ninety-percent of test-takers (themselves mostly students bound for 4-year-colleges). I certainly hope this list isn't mostly comprised of that narrow slice of the social spectrum which outscored Bush. In our zeal to illuminate GWB's class-privilege let's not counter-productively lend legitimacy to such a tightly class-correlated "aptitude"-measurer as the SAT.
