Two Lindbergh High Seniors Earn Perfect SAT Scores

Tiffany Lee and Zach Nowlis earned 2400's on their SATs.

Two Lindbergh High School students have achieved perfect 2400 scores on the SAT college preparedness test. Seniors Tiffany Lee and Zach Nowlis are among only .02 percent of students nationwide who accomplished this feat in 2012, according to the SAT website. They are two of just 360 students to earn perfect scores, out of more than 1.6 million total SAT takers nationwide.

Tiffany’s perfect score elevates her to an even higher level of achievement, since earlier this year she scored a perfect 36 on her ACT and last year achieved a perfect PSAT score.

LHS Class of 2013 Counselor and Guidance Director Dr. Jonathan Riethmeier said this is the first time in his memory at Lindbergh that a student has scored perfect on the SAT, let alone a perfect SAT and ACT in the same year. The last perfect ACT score at LHS was in 2008.
