Pretty stringent requirements, don't you think???? 200 is the minimun one can get from either the verbal or math part (if I remember correctly, it was a while back), so if I hand in a blank exam, then I automatically get 400 total points. Admission standard is not as important as graduation standard. Maybe ALL students (not just athletes) should pass a national proficiency exam to get a BA or BS.
