SAT
Scholastic Aptitude Test
What is the SAT®?
While high school grades are
a very useful indicator of how
students will perform in
college, there is great
variation in grading standards
and course rigor within and
across high schools. More
than 80 years ago the College
Board created the first
standardized college entrance
test to help colleges and
universities identify students
who could succeed at their
institutions and to connect
students with educational
opportunities beyond high
school.
Today, the SAT is the
benchmark standardized
assessment of the critical
reading, mathematical
reasoning, and writing skills
students have developed over
time and that they need
to be successful in college. Each
year, more than two million
students take the SAT. Nearly
every college in America uses
the test as a common and
objective scale for evaluating
a student's college readiness.

college credit, placement, or
both for qualifying AP Exam
