I'd agree with you if the SAT had harder math on it. If I had to do calculus now, after not using it for 20 years, I'd get a lot of questions wrong.
But the SAT doesn't really go beyond basic algebra, and after getting an engineering degree, that feels burned into my ROM. I retook the GRE over a decade after my last math class, without studying, and still crushed it. Certain skills (reading quickly, parsing questions correctly, working backwards from multiple choice answers) don't leave you.
