The SAT is a three-hour objective test designed to measure verbal and mathematical skills. More than 600 colleges require students to take this test.
Your two SAT scores - SAT verbal and SAT mathematical are expressed as numbers that indicate where you stand on the scale running from 200 to 800. These scores are an accurate representation of how you performed on the test. The SAT can, however, provide only a sample of your verbal and mathematical abilities. Consequently, the scores cannot be absolutely precise indicators of intellectual power. College admissions officers recognize this fact in appraising each student's scores.
