shar Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 If you're a fan of "Muse is rock for clever people" (like me ) then feast your eyes on this: Sorry the image is so large:( We scored fairly well in the 1156ish range, leaving us in the upper average range. Pwoper work, I'd say:D I know its been discussed, but do you think that it takes a fair amount of intellectuality to "get" Muse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regilistic Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I'm guessing it scales left-right from dumbest to smartest. But I'm only assuming this because Lil Wayne is at the far left and Beethoven as at the far right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DifferentPerson Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 But some of it makes no sense. Oasis more 'intelligent' than Queen? U2 more so than Pink Floyd or RATM? What is the scale at the top even measuring? I feel like much more explanation is needed here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clom Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 This is just nonsense, there's no way of measuring this. Muse are not "rock for clever people." Muse are a pop band, yes a fairly technical pop band, but you certainly don't need to be clever to enjoy them (or even understand them.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shar Posted March 1, 2014 Author Share Posted March 1, 2014 Sorry guys... For some clarification, these are SAT scores measuring lowest on the left and highest on the right. Looks it we did come in a little lower than that band... *cough*Radiohead*cough* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I like how classic rock is low on the list. I WAS BORN IN THE WRONG GENERATION Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mskatie Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Pssh. I got 1890 on the SAT. This should be updated for the current 2400-point scale. Because SAT scores obviously objectively indicate intelligence or a lack of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kueller Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I didn't do very well on the SAT so I should bump Muse down for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alec Ferris Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 (edited) Not sure why LP are considered more mentally demanding than Metallica. At least, more than Metallica's first four/five releases- St Anger would probably take some serious brain disengagement to enjoy. Edited March 1, 2014 by Alec.

Spectrum IV Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 All this does is demonstrate that students who both: a) listen to Muse, and b) attend any one of an unspecified subset of colleges, tend to have slightly higher than average SAT scores. It's a joke, the entire point is that it proves nothing. I have no idea why people aren't getting this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
