SAT tests are college entrance tests. They are used in part of the formula to determine if a student is admitted into a college. They may also be used for placement purposes once a student gets into college. For example, if they score high enough on the SAT, they may not have to take other placement tests and are able to directly enroll in upper-level courses or non-remedial coursework.

∙ 14y agoYour SAT score is one of the factors taken into consideration when a college admission officer reviews your college application. The SAT score (or ACT score) is typically used as one of the main determining factors because the numeric value of a test score offers a more objective way to compare candidates. All of the other factors are subjective items-- extra curricular activities, community service, work experience and more.
