SAT Info

The SAT Reasoning Test or SAT is a measure of the critical thinking skills you'll need for academic success in college. The SAT assesses how well you analyze and solve problems—skills you learned in school that you'll need in college. The SAT is typically taken by high school juniors and seniors.

How is the SAT structured and timed?
The SAT is 3 hours and 45 minutes long and is divided into the following sections:

Section	Length	Question Types	# No of Questions
Critical Reading	Two 25-minute   sections	Sentence   Completion	19
	One 10-minute   section	Reading   Comprehension	48
Math	Two 25-minute   sections	Multiple   Choice	44
	One 10-minute   section	Grid-Ins	10
Writing	One 25-minute   section	Identifying   Sentence   Errors	18
	One 10-minute   section	Improving   Sentences	25
	One 25-minute   essay	Improving   Paragraphs	6
Experimental	One 25-minute   section	Can be   Critical   Reading, Math,   or Writing	Varies
		Does not   count toward   score

What are the key components of each section?

Critical Reading: Sentence Completions
Sentence completions test both your vocabulary and your understanding of a sentence. Each question contains one or two blanks. You have to find out which answer correctly completes the sentence. As you read, try to predict what word should go in each blank. Work through process of elimination in case the answer is not very obvious.

Critical Reading: Reading Comprehension
The Critical Reading test now includes both long and short reading passages. First skim the passage without worrying about the details. Then first tackle the questions that direct you straight to the answer by referring you to a specific line in the passage.

Writing: Multiple-Choice Questions
There are three types of multiple-choice writing questions on the SAT. In Improving Sentences, you have to select the grammatically correct version of an underlined portion of a sentence. In Sentence Error questions, you have to identify the part of a sentence with an error. In Improving Paragraphs section, you have to test your ability to organize and clarify information. For all of these question types, think about the simplest, clearest way to express an idea.

Writing: Essay
You will be given an open-ended essay that asks you to state a viewpoint and support it. It is important to develop your ideas and express them logically, using examples to back them up. The standard five-paragraph essay can be an effective way to make your point. Just make sure to organize it properly.

Math: Multiple-Choice Questions
As you work through the multiple-choice math questions, you'll be able to use facts and formulas given there to help you. You are also allowed to use a calculator for speed. If you're stuck, try plugging in numbers from the answer choices and take an intelligent guess to eliminate some choices.

Math: Grid-Ins
These questions are not multiple-choice - you come up with an answer and fill it into a grid. The grid answers will always be positive numbers, proper or improper fractions, or decimals. Unlike the multiple-choice questions, you won't be penalized for wrong answers, so make your best guess and answer every question even if you're not sure.

How is the test organized?
The 25-minute essay will always be the first section of the SAT, and the 10-minute multiple-choice writing section will always be the final section. The remaining six 25-minute sections can appear in any order, as can the two 20-minute sections. Test takers sitting next to each other in the same testing session may have test books with entirely different sections.

What do SAT scores look like?
The SAT has three scores, each on the scale of 200 to 800. Your score will include writing (W 200-800), mathematics (M 200-800), and critical reading (CR 200-800).

What are the similarities and differences between the SAT and the PSAT/NMSQT?
Both the SAT and the PSAT/NMSQT measure reasoning skills in critical reading, writing, and mathematics. The PSAT/NMSQT contains actual SAT questions, but it is designed to be slightly easier than the SAT. The PSAT/NMSQT is two hours and 10 minutes, whereas the SAT takes three hours and 45 minutes. The SAT is used for college admissions, but PSAT/NMSQT scores are not sent to colleges. The PSAT/NMSQT Score Report gives you personalized feedback on areas in which you could improve, along with specific advice on how to improve. Taking the PSAT/NMSQT gives you a chance to qualify for scholarship and recognition programs and is the best practice for the SAT.

What's the difference between the SAT and Subject Tests?
The SAT measures the critical thinking skills you'll need for academic success in college. It assesses how well you analyze and solve problems. SAT scores are used for college admission purposes because the test predicts college success. The Subject Tests are one-hour, primarily multiple-choice tests in specific subjects. Subject Tests measure knowledge or skills in a particular subject and your ability to apply that knowledge.
