The SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test) is a standardized test designed to assess students’ academic abilities. It is developed and administered by the College Board, a renowned nonprofit educational organization in the United States. Recognized as one of the most important international standardized tests, the SAT plays a crucial role in college admissions, accounting for 20% of a student’s study abroad application success. Beyond evaluating academic proficiency, the SAT also measures students’ logical reasoning skills.
SAT scores are accepted by over 4,000 universities worldwide, allowing students to apply for a wide range of academic disciplines, including engineering, medicine, humanities, and the arts, at various colleges and universities.
The SAT consists of two main sections: Reading & Writing and Math, each divided into two progressively challenging modules. The total test duration is 2 hours and 14 minutes, with 64 minutes allocated for Reading & Writing, 70 minutes for Math, and a 10-minute break between the two sections.
