SAT/SAT REASONING TEST
SAT/ SAT REASONING TEST
The SAT is a test that colleges and universities use to predict how successful a student may be in college. Colleges use these scores as a factor in determining a student's admissions status. Minimum scores vary from school to school and major to major. Students interested in a particular school should check with the Admissions Office of the school for more information.
The SAT tests Critical Reading, Mathematical, and Writing Skills. Most schools look at the numbered scores of the Reading and Math sections in their admissions process.
