SAT Test
The SAT (technically known as the
SAT I) is a general test of verbal and quantitative reasoning accepted and
required for admission to a bachelor degree program in a US university or
college. The test is required for admission to undergraduate programs of
most US universities. Many universities also require you to take SAT-II tests.
The SAT is a three-hour test that
measures verbal and mathematical reasoning skills students have developed over
time and skills they need to be successful in college. Many colleges and
universities use the SAT as one indicator among others-class rank, high school
GPA, extracurricular activities, personal essay, and teacher recommendations-of
a student's readiness to do college-level work. SAT scores are compared with the
scores of other applicants, and the accepted scores at an institution, and can
be used as a basis for awarding merit-based financial aid.
SAT is administered seven times a
year in the U.S., Puerto Rico, and U.S. Territories, and six times a year
overseas.
