Page 2: After Graduation…

What is the SAT?The SAT I is a standardized examination designed to measure students’ abilities in three areas: reading, writing, and mathematical reasoning. Many American colleges and universities, including the most prestigious, consider SAT scores an important factor in judging the quality of applicants. American schools care about SATs because it provides a level playing field for applicants to demonstrate their abilities. The SAT is 3 hours and 45 minutes long. It is composed of 10 sections. To register go to the College Board website at collegeboard.org

The ACT test— Previously known as ‘American College Testing’ is a college admissions and placement test taken by more than 1.6 million high school graduates every year. To register, go to act.org
