More important than the SAT score are:

  1. Your IQ score, if you know yours. Make sure to provide the URL of the website where you took the test.

  2. The picture, which is absolutely essential.

  3. Your "quirky"/individual email address; none of this first-name/last-name bullshit. If you have a vanity license plate, also include that.

  4. Your marital status and sign.

 

I have been told to not even put the high school name on the resume because apparantly its irrelevant to the recruiters...So if you went to a fancy private school, hehe, some recruiters wont give a damn. Like i said before, they (recruiters) are evil people lol.

 

i don't think SAT score is totally being neglected, but you're certainly not required to put it on your res. i'd say put it down if it's higher than what people generally expect out of your school or if your undergrad gpa is mediocre. people assume you had stellar numbers before college if you're from an ivy (okay this is not always true but people just assume so). recently i came across a res from a non-target (rank 30+) with 1600 SAT, that would definitely help him landing the interviews.

 

Only reason you should put your SAT score is if you have a perfect score. Even then, if you have been out of college for a few years and have other experience, you shouldn't include anything about your high school.

I find it funny when I read resumes and they have their SAT score listed. Even worse, if I see a SAT score but no GPA, you can guarantee that I'm going to ask. Does it matter if you scored a 1500 in high school and ended up with a 3.0?

SAT= no real work experience.

 

i got 1450 on SAT, i went into an interveiw today for structured credit at BB

i was lookin over at my resume the interviewers had and they had my SAT's highlighted for some reason...
