[RUME] Verbal SAT better than Math SAT for research?

[Ronald Ward]

I read that, as well.  But it applied only to girls and was not concerned with predicting success in mathematical research but rather success in college math classes, if I remember correctly.   If I look through the right box I can probably still find it buried somewhere!  :)

Some time in the 1990's I remember reading a report that said that a
high SAT verbal score was a better predictor of success in
mathematical research than the math score was.   I would appreciate
knowing where I could find out about this (or if I am dreaming).
