What is the SAT?

The SAT exam is a college entrance examination used by colleges in the US to assess a student's aptitude before entering university. It is considered the assessment of record for admissions offices in the US and worldwide, and is taken by millions of students each and every year. The SAT is administered by the College Board in the United States and is developed, published, and scored by the Educational Testing Service (ETS).

We can also recommend the article section either here or in next section like you did for "If you’re more interested in the exam itself and want to know more of what it entails, read some of our Security+ exam articles about the exam experience, career paths available to you after taking the exam, and some general exam tips (especially on how to answer multiple-choice questions)."

Understanding SAT Test Score

• Raw Score (Multiple Choice Only): You begin with 0 points. For every question you answer correctly, you earn 1 point. For every question you answer incorrectly, you lose one-fourth of 1 point. For every question you omit, you earn 0 points.
• Raw Score (Fill-in-the-Blank): You begin with 0 points. For every question you answer correctly, you earn 1 point. Otherwise, an incorrect or omitted answer is worth 0 points.
• Essay Scoring: Essays are scored on a scale of 1-6, 6 being the highest. Two graders score the essay, and the combined score is used to determine the overall 2-12 score on the essay
• Scaled SAT Score: For each major section of the SAT, your raw score is converted into a scaled (200-800) score using a skewed normal curve. A higher raw score corresponds to a higher scaled score.
