Most of the high school students taking the SAT in 1965 were 17 years old plus or minus a year and so were born around 1948. Most of their parents reached adulthood prior to or during WWII and were therefore born between 1910 and 1930. 1965 was the peak SAT score year reached as scores rose during the 1950s and early 1960s. Thus parents of children raised during the 1950s and early to mid 1960s did an incredible job or raising their children as did society as a whole. The 1950s were wonderful years in which to grow up and obtain a good education for many reasons.
