General Information on
the SAT
The
SAT 1 or SAT as it is commonly known is a required test
for students who wish to apply for admission into a
university in the United States. It is usually taken
by high school students in their 10th, 11th or 12th
grades. Local students in the upper secondary as well
as junior college levels may also take this test.
The SAT is a multiple choice test comprising Writing,
Math and Critical Reading sections. Each section is graded
on a scale of 800, making the total possible score in

write his/her responses to a topic statement. The essay
writing portion is considered for the overall Writing
score and will be sent together with the SAT test score
to the universities that you specify during test registration.
Essays are graded on a scale of 0 to 12.
