As a high school student-athlete who wants to participate in collegiate athletics, you must understand the importance of the SAT test. The SAT test is used by almost all colleges and universities to determine you acceptance to the institution. It is a three hour and forty-five minute test that is meant to measure a student’s proficiency in critical thinking, mathematical reasoning and writing. This test is intended to determine whether or not a person will be able to do college-level work.

Each section of the test is scored on a scale of 200-800 and the maximum score in the test can be 2400.
