I'm calling BS on this one. I got a 1390/1600 and I recieved partial scholarship offers from schools left and right. Keep in mind I'm also a middle-class white guy. So if you really got a 1600, you'd be contacted with scholarship offers like you were a Wii at christmas.

It's true. I had a lot of awards from academic competitions too.
I didn't really shop around though. I had my mind set on Georgia Tech and they wouldn't give me any scholarships. I'm told that what kept me from getting scholarships is that my grades weren't quite perfect and I didn't have any fluff community service or "leadership roles" on my resume.
