keep someone from noticing?

Sorry, Mike, but these are some of the most useless statistics of all. Some
of the trend these numbers show is correct, but another part of it is all
wet. For example, go to the SAT resources and take a look at the percentages
of kids who even TAKE the SATs in those states.

NJ, for example, is near the top in the percentage of test-takers.
Mississippi and South Carolina are near the bottom. So, the SAT scores
grossly UNDERestimate actual state-wide averages, for all students, in NJ
and other states with a high percentage of test-takers, while Mississippi's
and S. Carolina's, believe it or not, 'way OVERestimate theirs. g

If anyone doesn't follow this, BTW, there's a good chance he's from a state
with a low percentage of SAT test-takers. d8-)
