Are you thinking about going to college? From the SAT to ACT to CLT, you have a variety of options when it comes to which (if any) entrance exam to take.



When it comes to college entrance examinations you have a number of options, and each has its own advantages and disadvantages. The three most common entrance exams are the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT), the American College Test (ACT), and the Classical Learning Test (CLT). To help determine which of these exams is the right choice for you, let’s explore the format and content of each. 

Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT)

More than two million students take the SAT every year. The SAT is a standardized test introduced in 1926, administered by the ETS (Educational Testing Service) on behalf of the College Board. Typically, high school students take the SAT during their junior year or early in their senior year. 

If you're interested in taking the SAT, check with your high school to see if they offer it on-site. Many schools offer the SAT at varying times throughout the year. If your school doesn't provide testing, they can direct you to an official test center nearby.

Format

If you take the SAT, you'll have three hours to complete it, and it consists of two key parts: 

An evidence-based reading and writing section 

A math section

For the evidence-based section of the SAT, you'll complete a reading test and a writing and language test. In the math section, you'll have the option of using a calculator during the first part of the test, but you'll need to put it away for the second part. Although the SAT doesn't include a formal science section, questions on science are interspersed throughout. 

After you've completed the SAT, you'll earn separate scores from 200 to 800 for each of the two sections. Your composite score can range from 400 to 1600.

You should receive your SAT scores approximately two to three weeks from your completion date. Usually, scores are sent to your chosen schools within ten days of receipt.
