I think SAT's are harder to excel at than GPA. All you need to do for a good GPA in high school is to do as you're told.

i hate how people brag about their scores.
to be honest i dont even know my score and i really could care less. im still at a univeristy level of education right now getting my BA like everyone else that scored higher than me.
and yes the SAT's are hard to excel at. but some people are great test takers and some are not. Like me, I tend to freeze up and get easy questions wrong. SAT's regarding reading comprehension, vocab, i suck at. But i am better at math and science areas because i use formulas and problem solving to answer the questions rather than comprehension of a short story. some people are just better at comprehension, multiple choice, t/f, etc.
And GPA's are not easy to obtain in high school. you still need to work hard to get good grades which alot of people can not do. And a 4.0 of someone taking bare minimum classes vs a 4.0 AP, and Honor student is very different when you apply to a univeristy.
