SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test)
What is SAT?
The SAT is a standardized test widely used for college undergrad admissions in the United States.
Since it was debuted by the College Board in 1926, its name and scoring have changed several times; originally called the Scholastic Aptitude Test, it was later called the Scholastic Assessment Test, then the SAT I: Reasoning Test, then the SAT Reasoning Test, then simply the SAT.
There are two types of SAT
1. SAT General Test
2. SAT Subject Test – It is designed to measure a secondary school student’s proficiency in a particular subject.
