SATs are IQ tests? A large portion is math, and the other written language, both taught disciplines. You obviously haven't taken a real IQ test, which is more abstract and has a large portion of spatial geometry type questions.




And isn't one large chunk of the SAT a written language test - that's gong to suck for dyslexic / neurodiverse candidates.


At one point, MENSA would accept a high SAT score as a reasonable proxy for a high IQ.
