"SAT scores": you might want to ask for age when the test was taken. Some people take it in middle school and never take it again.

Out of curiosity, I took the SAT as an adult and scored ~120 points higher than at age 17, on a supposedly-harder test. I suspect not being sleep-deprived had something to do with it.
