3 Woodland Students Get Perfect Sat Math Scores

LONGVIEW — Fewer than 1 percent of high school students earn a perfect score — 800 points — on any section of the Scholastic Assessment Test.

So he “flat-out couldn’t believe it” when three students from Woodland High School each got an 800 in the math section of the SAT this year.
