Story about a guy with a SAT score of zero... goes to Harvard. True? False?

Okay, so I heard a story about a guy that purposely answered wrong on every question on the SAT and possibly got into Harvard...?


I'm curious to know if this is true or not, and also if there's any article on it.Story about a guy with a SAT score of zero... goes to Harvard. True? False?
haven't heard of it.Story about a guy with a SAT score of zero... goes to Harvard. True? False?
It's not true because according to U.S. News %26amp; World Report: Best Colleges 2009 as well as the College Board, 97-99% of all students admitted to Harvard scored higher than 600 *on each subject* (1800 minimum). The percent of admitted students who scored below 500 on each subject (so 1500 if they got no more than 500 on each) was zero.
Well that can't be true, because SAT is a required admissions step to get into Harvard. So the lowest he couldn't have gotten on the SAT was a 400 (old SAT) because you get those points for just signing your name. So yeah, it's fake.
I think the story is of someone who got a 0 on the ACT who got in. I think it's because you need to know all of the right answers to get the wrong one or something like that. I'm not sure if it's true or not.
Not true. The lowest possible SAT score is a 200.

its true, these people don't know what they're talking about





he got a 600 because he got negative raw scores


there was an article I read a year ago, but I don't know where it is now
False. For one thing, the lowest you can get on the SAT is 600(200 on each part.)
