Too Bad It's Only Finger Length

...or I'd have the highest possible SAT score =)

A quick look at the lengths of children's index and ring fingers can be used to predict how well students will perform on SATs, new research claims.

Kids with longer ring fingers compared to index fingers are likely to have higher math scores than literacy or verbal scores on the college entrance exam, while children with the reverse finger-length ratio are likely to have higher reading and writing, or verbal, scores versus math scores.


There's more, but who knows how long the Yahoo News link will stay available. If it doesn't work, try LiveScience.com, even though I can't find this report there today.
