A friend of my wife's, a woman then about 50, applied for a job as business manager of a publishing company a few years ago. They asked her about her GREs, which she must have taken around thirty years before. Anyway, you're right, that was weird. But you know, if the employees of a company got into the company largely because of their schools, and got into their schools largely because of their SATs, why wouldn't they ask. As far as they are concerned, SATs do an excellent job of predicting performance.
