The Associated Press WASHINGTON SAT scores among the nation's high school seniors remain stubbornly stagnant. The College Board, the nonprofit organization that administers the test, reported scores Tuesday from the Class of 2014 that were similar to other re- cent senior classes. Overall, the mean score in reading was 497. It was 513 in math and 487 in writing. The top score in each category is 800, and 583 of the 1.7 million stu- dents from the class who took the test achieved the perfect score of 2,400. About 43 percent of test takers met a benchmark that indicated they were likely ready for credit- bearing, college-level work — a figure that has also remained about the same. The benchmark was met by nearly 53 percent of white and nearly 61 per- cent of Asian test-takers. Nearly 16 percent of Af- rican-American test-tak- ers met the college-ready benchmark, as did nearly a quarter of Hispanic test- takers and about a third of Native Americans.
