The SAT is a standardized test used by many colleges and universities to assess a student's academic readiness for college. It consists of four sections: Math, ESSAY, Vocabulary, and VERBAL. Math is a four-letter section that tests a student's knowledge of basic mathematical concepts. The ESSAY section is a five-letter section that requires students to write an ESSAY on a given topic. The Vocabulary section is also a five-letter section that tests a student's knowledge of words and their meanings. Finally, the VERBAL section is a six-letter section that tests a student's ability to understand and use language.
