About the SAT Test-
The SAT Reasoning Test is a measure of the
critical thinking skills you'll need for
academic success in college. The SAT assesses
how well you analyze and solve problems—skills
you learned in school that you'll need in
college. The SAT is typically taken by high
school juniors and seniors.
Each section of the SAT is scored on a scale of
200—800, with two writing subscores for
multiple-choice and the essay. It is
administered seven times a year in the U.S.,
Puerto Rico, and U.S. Territories, and six times
a year overseas.
The SAT includes a
Critical Reading,
Math, and
Writing section, with a specific number of
questions related to content.
In addition, there is one 25-minute unscored
section, known as the variable or equating
section. This unscored section may be either a
critical reading, math, or writing
multiple-choice section. This unscored section
does not count toward the final score, but is
used to try out new questions for future
editions of the SAT and to ensure that scores on
new editions of the SAT are comparable to scores
on earlier editions of the test.
The 25-minute essay will always be the first
section of the SAT, and the 10-minute
multiple-choice writing section will always be
the final section. The remaining six 25-minute
sections can appear in any order, as can the two
20-minute sections. Test takers sitting next to
each other in the same testing session may have
test books with entirely different sections.
|
Although the SAT is historically the test of
choice for students in New England, many
students now choose to take both the SAT and the
ACT. Most colleges across the country accept
either ACT or SAT test scores. For information
on what choice might be best for you, please
speak to your counselor.
