SAT I
The SAT is a standardized test used for college admissions. The SAT assesses college readiness by testing critical reading, mathematical reasoning, and writing skills. The SAT lasts three hours and 45 minutes (for actual testing time), and includes these three sections:
Critical Reading: tests a student’s vocabulary, understanding of sentence structure and organization, and ability to answer questions based on a reading passage.
Mathematical Reasoning (or quantitative): tests knowledge of geometry, functions, probability, algebra, statistics, and data analysis. Now allows usage of a graphing calculator.
Critical Writing: includes multiple-choice questions and a short essay, where students respond to a given prompt.
Each section is scored out of a possible 800, with a total possible score of 2400. The SAT Reasoning Test is offered by the College Board. On each test date, you can take either the SAT or up to three SAT II Subject Tests.
