The SAT can be tutored (and is). Lower income students can't afford this tutoring, so on average and on a purely economic basis you would expect that higher income kids achieve higher scores than lower income ones.

You'd expect higher income kids to achieve SAT scores 30 pts higher than lower income students (and untutored higher income kids).
