So Rufo's article is based on the claim that Mamdani got 2140, an "89th percentile" score, below the median for acceptance to Columbia.
2140 out of 2400 is 89%.
That's not how SAT percentiles work.
A 2140 is a 97% percentile score for that year.

Chris Rufo and the NY Post have a new and shocking Mamdani BOMBSHELL:
His SAT scores were AVERAGE among admitted students!!!!!!!
This is definitely the sort of thing you report when a candidate has skeletons in the closet.

Zohran Mamdani is dumb. And the fact that he scored at the 98th percentile on the SAT proves it.

It's a bizarre and frankly alienating feeling realizing that if you know the basic fact that the murder rate has gone down significantly since 1990 you're in the ~90th+ percentile of fact-knowers
Once again, Gen X is super wrong, but they're confidently wrong.

I think that phone allowing people to simultaneously be flooded with the 99th percentile that is struggling and the 99th percentile that is absolutely loaded breaks brains
Seriously, the Democrats have not led “on the economy” in living memory (sans for 8 months in 2007-08), and it all shifted in the time between Liberation Day and now
Btw I think the synthesis of “phones causing brainrot” and “it’s the economy” may be that phones are making ppl hate the economy

Obviously, none of this matters. But I feel compelled to point out that no one got a "far better" score than Zohran on the SAT. His score was in the 97.3 percentile in the country! Even a perfect 100 percentile is only 2.7% better!

Elon Musk is probably a top 0.1 percentile recipient of gender affirming care
I am also really interested in his copious facial, plastic surgery and presumably also body plastic surgery. The only comment I see are mocking memes of him without hair (and a much rounder face) in his 20s.

“Moving from a less walkable (25th percentile) city to a more walkable city (75th percentile) increased walking by 1,100 daily steps, on average”
A cool natural experiment using cellphone data finds that, when people relocate to more walkable areas, they walk more and are more active. Why does this matter? Because many related studies were affected by self-selection bias, where people who like to walk might choose to live in walkable places
Countrywide natural experiment links built environment to physical activity - Nature
By analysing the smartphone data of 2,112,288 participants, in particular observing and comparing the activity of the same individual in two different environments, we find that increases in the walka...

Yes, it's true, the median household net worth is around $193k. But it's not a normal slope below that, there's yet more skew, just like at the top.
You'd think the 33rd percentile would be around $125k. They're not, it's more like $67k.
10th percentile is around $0. Below that, it's negative.
