Incorrect assumption. The SAT was "dumbed down" somewhere around 1980. 1200
when GWB took the SAT would have had a significantly higher percentile rank
than it has now. IIRC, 1250 on the pre-1980 SAT was a qualifying score for
Mensa, which means 98th percentile, so presumably 1200 would not have been too
far behind.
