SAT Test
The SAT is designed for students to demonstrate reasoning and problem-solving abilities. It tells students how well they use the skills and knowledge they have attained in and outside of the classroom—including how they think, solve problems, and communicate. The SAT has three scores, each on the scale of 200-800: writing (W 200-800), mathematics (M 200-800), and critical reading (CR 200-800).

Some exemptions for testing are granted based on SAT, ACT, or TAKS scores.
