Subject Tests Overview
SAT Subject Tests are college admission exams on specific subjects. These are the only national admission tests where you choose the tests that best showcase your strengths and interests
The Basics
-
There are 20 SAT Subject Tests in five general subject areas: English, history, languages, mathematics and science. See college Board website for the subjects list.
-
Each Subject Test is an hour long. They are all multiple-choice and scored on a 200–800 scale.
-
Subject Tests test you on your knowledge of subjects on a high school level. The best way to prepare is to take the relevant courses and work hard in them.
When, Where, and How
-
SAT Subject Tests are generally given six times in any given school year, on the same days and in the same test centers as the SAT — but not all 20 tests are offered on every SAT date
-
You can take one, two, or three Subject Tests on any test date
-
You can’t take the SAT and an SAT Subject Test on the same day
-
You choose what tests to take when you register, but on test day, you can add, subtract, or switch tests
Why Take the Tests
-
SAT Subject Tests can do more than help you show off your strengths.
-
Colleges May Require Subject Tests- Some colleges require or recommend that you take SAT Subject Tests, especially if you’re applying to take specific courses or programs
-
Stand Out in College Admissions - Even colleges that don’t require Subject Tests may accept them and use them in admission to get a more complete picture of applicants. By sending Subject Test scores to colleges, you can showcase your strengths
-
Show Colleges Your Interests - You can send a strong message to colleges about your interest in specific majors or programs — and how ready you are to tackle the work
-
Fulfill Requirements or Get Credit - Some colleges use Subject Tests to place students into the appropriate courses. Depending on your test scores, you might be able to fulfill basic requirements or get credit for introductory-level courses.
-
Show What You’ve Learned Outside the Classroom - Have you taken a summer program, weekend classes, or an online course — or studied a subject on your own? Taking a Subject Test is one way to show the skills and understanding you gained.
