Yeah, the data they summarize is easily accessible and not new. On the SAT- GPA correlation, range-restriction is the big factor. The correlation gets smaller when colleges "pre-select" by denying admissions below a certain SAT score of X - hence they have no SAT-GPA data for that lower part. With a broader range of SAT scores to consider, SAT accounts for at least variance as HS grades, and a good chuck is unique variance. Glad to see they also discuss the Hunter meta-analysis on IQ. Thanks Michael for the article ..
