SAT

The SAT, or Scholastic Assessment Test, is a standardized test used primarily for college admissions in the United States. It assesses students' skills in reading, writing, and math. The test helps colleges evaluate a student's readiness for college-level studies. The SAT consists of multiple-choice questions and an optional essay, and it scores students on a scale from 400 to 1600. Colleges often use SAT scores, alongside high school grades and other factors, to make admission decisions and determine eligibility for scholarships. Preparing for the SAT can enhance students' chances of entering their preferred colleges.
