thread_title:  Yearly Scores 

message: I've just reverted edits by 70.19.18.3 and 68.161.123.169 that inserted some cutoff scores of unknown vintage.  I wholehearted support including the scores in the article.  But since this is a perennial bone of contention among the schools, we can't just post the numbers.  Anyone who has numbers to add: Please include a citation that says where you got the numbers from, some place that is reliable and can be checked.   RossPatterson 05:01, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The scores I put down (478, and 553 for Stuy)can be checked. I got them from Insideschools.org, but I don't know how to put citations in. You can check on the website if you like. Btw, is everyone here from Stuy? I got into Brooklyn Tech but turned it down. I got a 501. Ladybug413 02:38, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thanks, that helps.  I looked at a few pages there, and did a few searches, but I can't find any scores.  If you can post an actual URL here, I'll gladly write up the citation for the article. RossPatterson 22:52, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

text: That was what we needed.  I've updated the article accordingly.  Thanks!  RossPatterson 03:38, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Scores again

message: I remember that the test used to be called the SSHSAT (Specialized Science High Schools Admissions Test), but then they dropped the Science part. Can someone confirm this and the year that they dropped it?

replies: text: Yes and no.  It is currently called "Specialized High Schools Admissions Test", but I don't know when it changed.  Check the references of the article for the source. RossPatterson 21:14, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Well, I found on this website that it was called so because the original three high schools were mainly based on science. This is only my guess, but that means that it was dropped in 2002, when American Studies was added as a specialized high school, since its emphasis is on history.
