Teenager earns perfect SAT score

OCALA, Fla. (AP) — An Ocala-area teenager has recorded a perfect SAT score.

Vanguard High School junior Vikash Sinha says his flawless 2,400 score on the exam was a bit of a surprise, because he hadn’t achieved a perfect score in practice exams. His high school counselor says he didn’t know how well the 16-year-old had done on the test until Vikash’s mother and sister stopped by the school to discuss his college options.

Sinha says he’d like to enter the medical field and is considering a career in research. He’s got his sights set on Harvard University, other Ivy League schools and Duke University.
