Data sets in the raw

Statistics filter: Trying to find at least 100 pairs of data points from test scores

For a college statistics class: We are trying to find at least 100 pairs of data points from test scores such as the SAT which have two associated values such as Math score and Verbal score, or total score and age or something along those lines. Google gives me lots of census and politics but not raw data sets.

Lawschoolnumbers.com is a website for potential law school students to compare their numbers and where they're accepted. GPA is usually included too. The only caveat is that these numbers are self-reported, so you can't guarantee any individual data point is real. However, there are thousands of profiles going back 4-5 years, so lots of raw data for you.
