    Exam Information

    1.  What is the SAT?

    The SAT Reasoning Test is a test students usually take for college admissions. The test has three sections: Critical Reading, Writing and Math and is about three hours and 45 minutes long. Most people agree that the SAT is the single most important test students can take in high school.

    2.  Who creates the SAT?

    The SAT is created by Educational Testing Service (ETS). ETS is paid by the College Board to create the exam. Both of these companies are private.

    3.  When is the SAT given?

    The SAT is given seven times per year in the following months: October, November, December, January, March, May, and June. The test dates vary by year, the specific test dates for can be found at:http://www.collegeboard.com/student/testing/sat/calenfees.html

    4.  When should I register for the SAT?

    Registration deadlines are approximately 5 weeks before each test date. You may want to register at least 6 - 8 weeks ahead of time to avoid late fees and ensure that you can take the SAT at your preferred test center. The test center may fill up, in which case you would have to consider alternate options, such as testing at a different test center or moving your exam date to the next SAT Exam.

    5.  How do I register?

    To register online, visit www.collegeboard.com.

    To register by mail, first obtain a copy of the College Board's Bulletin for the SAT Program (available at your school's guidance counselor's office). You can also request for a copy of the Bulletin for the SAT Program to be sent you by calling College Board at (866) 756-7346 or writing to:

    7.  How long does it take to get my scores back?

    The scores are usually mailed out 4 - 6 weeks after you take the test. You may also look up your scores online through the College Board website two weeks after your exam at www.collegeboard.com

    8.  What if I take the SAT and mess up?

    On the day of your test if you want to cancel your score during or after finishing your exam, you should ask the test supervisor for a Request to Cancel Test Scores form. You can submit the completed form immediately at the testing center. You can also think about it for a day or two before mailing it to College Board. However, College Board must receive your request form no later than 11:59 pm (Eastern Time) the Wednesday after the test. You must include the test date, test center number, name of the test you are cancelling, your name, address, sex, birth date, social security number, registration number, and your signature.

    9.  What is Score Choice?

    Score choice allows you to choose which SAT and SAT Subject Test scores you would like to send to colleges, at no additional cost. Different universities and colleges now have different score choice practices. Some schools require only the single highest test date score, some schools state that they combine the highest scores from different sections across test dates, and some schools require you to send all of your scores. View the score-choice practices of different schools. Always check with the schools you plan to apply to as well before sending your scores.

    10.  How many times can I take the SAT?

    If the colleges you are planning to apply to only require you to send your highest test scores, you can now take the SAT and SAT Subject Tests as many times as you want. Colleges will only see the scores you want to send them! If the colleges you are planning to apply to require you to send all of your test scores, we recommend you take the SAT a maximum of three times.

    11.  What is a good score on the SAT?

    A good score is one that will get you into the college of your choice, so the answer depends on where you want to go to college. The average score on the SAT is about a 1540. While class rank, extra-curricular activities, major, recommendations, essays, and other factors also come into play in college admissions, below is an estimate of what score is needed on the SAT for various colleges:

    University Name  Score Required

    Harvard University  2200 or above

    Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)  2200 or above

    New York University (NYU)  1950 or above

    Princeton University  2200 or above

    Rice University  2200 or above

    Stanford University  2200 or above

    University of California - Los Angeles (UCLA) 2050 or above

    University of Colorado - Boulder  1850 or above

    University of Houston  1500 or above

    University of Southern California (USC)  2050 or above

    University of Texas - Austin  1850 or above

    12.  When should I start preparing for the SAT?

    Because the SAT is the most important test for college admissions, it is always best to start preparing as early as possible. This allows more preparation time to achieve score goals. For students who have the goal of becoming a National Merit Semi-finalist, it is best to start by June before 10th grade. Otherwise, a student should start by the summer before their 11th grade, to maximize the effectiveness of our program because there are no distractions such as school homework, projects, exams or any other school activities. Students should start preparing for the SAT no later then the summer before their 12th grade.

    13.  Where can I get a sample SAT to practice on?

    You can download this sample test from the College Board to practice on a Real SAT exam.
