Nice scores:

Meanwhile talk show host Rush Limbaugh, political commentator Bill O'Reilly and actor and economist Ben Stein picked up near-perfect scores of 1530, 1585 and 1573 respectively.

It's not just conservatives with high scores though: Al Gore kept the tally high for the Democrat camp with a score of 1355. US president Barack Obama, on the other hand, has repeatedly refused to release his education records.

Not all celebrities fared brilliantly however, with presenter Howard Stern rumoured to have picked up a low 870, and baseball star Alex Rodriguez reaching just 910. Meanwhile stand-up comedian Janeane Garofalo is thought to have scored around 950.

If Odinga had done well on his SATs, they would be plastering his score everywhere but we never hear about it.

I like this:

Odinga did have his SAT score plastered to his forehead, but it fell off onto his prayer rug.

I would like to know the source of the SAT scores because I really doubt that Garofalo would have gotten into Providence College and Stern would have gotten into Boston University with those scores. I also note that both Garofalo and Stern took the old SAT exam before the scoring was statistically re-centered in 1995, and as a result, their scores are about 100 points lower than what they would have scored if they took the post-1995 exam.

Picked up? Like after your dog? I don’t think you pick up an SAT score.
