What are the SAT I and SAT II tests?
There are two types of SAT tests. The first is the SAT Reasoning Test (SAT I) and the second is the SAT Subject Test (SAT II). The SAT Reasoning Test (SAT I) is required for most universities and colleges and it is the most widely taken college entrance examination. It is designed to test your skill level in math, vocabulary, and reading comprehension. The SAT is scored on scale of 200-800 for both the math and verbal sections. The College Board sets the average for all test takers at 500 for each. A perfect score on the SAT is 1600. However, in recent years, fewer than 20% of all test takers achieve a math score of 600 or better. Fewer than 10% score higher than 600 on the verbal section. The SAT Subject Test (SAT II) examines you on individual subjects. The tests fall into 5 different categories: Mathematics, Sciences, History and Social Sciences, Languages and English. These are best taken after you’ve taken an AP course in your school on the same subject. More prestigious universit
