Standard Assessment Test (SAT) What is the SAT? The SAT is a standardized test that is used to gain admissions to US institutions. It covers math, critical reading & writing components and the highest score obtained is 1,600. Why Outsource this Component? Just like athletes want the best coaches, we want to the best in the business to assist our athletes on their road to achieving an athletic scholarship. Best Education and their owners have 50+ years of teaching experience and know first hand what it takes to score well on the test. How Often can the Test be Taken? The test can be taken as many times as you would like (keeping in mind you pay each time). Your best scores in the two components (Math & Critical Reading/Writing) will be combined for your overall score.
