In the "Job or Jail?: Cell Phone at My Desk" post I incorrectly said that I had scored in the top 99th percentile for written and verbal skills on my SAT. I was sorting out a bunch of old papers here today and found my SAT results, and in fact I was in the top
92 % nationally, and 95% for the state, not 99! This was quite humbling. I've spent many years thinking I was in the top 99%. Maybe that was the
Regents' test where I was in the top 99%. 92% isnt' at all bad, though.
