A theorem of Scott gives an upper bound for the normalized volume of lattice polygons with exactly i0 interior lattice points. We will show that the same bound is true for the normalized volume of lattice polytopes of degree 2 even in higher dimensions. In particular, there is only a finite number of quadratic polynomials with fixed leading coefficient being the h^*-polynomial of a lattice polytope.
