SAT is basically a general aptitude test, you don't need to attend an aptitude test of university (at least in the US) if you have given SAT exams.
There are 2 parts to this test, SAT I and SAT II. SAT I is a basic test, for English and Math ONLY. whereas, SAT II is a subject test, where you register to the college board as per your subject requirement.
Go to the site, www.collegeboard.com to find out about tthe test dates, how to register, and how will you be questioned, get the guide, get the materials to study, and practice the pastpapers. ALL of which are provided in the site. :)
Good luck!!

AoA, Xtremites!

This thread is intended for all those who may have problems related to the SAT. Members here have made numerous posts regarding testing centres, registration dates, the importance of the SAT, etc. This post is not for the aforementioned issues. Instead, post specific questions related to the subject matter here and have your doubts cleared. Your problems may relate to any of the three SAT sections:
  • Critical Reading
  • Writing Skills
  • Math
Happy posting and good luck! :)

Hey, I wondered how much time do we need to give for the preparation of SAT 1, for a score greater than 2000. I really need help with the time management part. Waiting for a reply. Thanks. ^_^

I'm giving the SAT I this November and I need a bit of advice. I've found a lot of SAT resources on the internet but the problem is that now I have a LOT of resources(Ebooks of Barron's, Princeton, McGraw Hill's, practice tests, notes etc) and it isn't possible to study from each and everyone of them. So can someone tell me which book(s) are the BEST for getting a good score in the SAT I (for those who have given it)? Help will be appreciated :)

No I hate it :D
I like the fact that it explains everything nicely, but I hate the tests. The tests make you feel so stupid, as if you don't know anything. But yeah, it was the first book I used, and I have to credit for helping me.

Kaplans is the worst. The worst tests on Planet Earth, with even more asinine explanations that make no sense whatsoever.

Get the Blue Book. I have heard it is the best. Its tests are regarded as being as closest to the original tests.

I actually like Kaplan's Chemistry book.
Princeton Review's Physics and Biology E/M books are good, Barron's Biology E/M and Mathematics Level II is great. The blue College Board book is only good for the SAT I, and the SAT II Subject Tests book is okay-ish. McGraw Hill's SAT I book is good.
