What is the "SAT"?
The SAT, or Scholastic Assessment Test, is a standardized college admissions test used in the United States. It measures a student's readiness for college by assessing skills in reading, writing, and mathematics. The SAT has several sections, including evidence-based reading and writing, math, and an optional essay. Colleges and universities often use SAT scores along with other factors like high school performance and extracurricular activities to evaluate applicants. The test provides a common way to compare students from different educational backgrounds, helping admissions officers make informed decisions about prospective students.
