For the SAT, two types of percentile ranks, comparing student scores to two different reference populations, are reported. Nationally representative sample percentiles are derived from research study samples of U.S. students in grades 11 and 12 and are weighted to represent all U.S. students in those grades, regardless of whether they typically take the SAT. User group percentiles are based on performance on the SAT by recent high school graduates.

SAT EXAM
College Board administers the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) throughout the year on different dates. Candidates seeking admission into Undergraduate programmes in foreign universities can appear for SAT. The College Board conducts SAT to evaluate the aspirants’ written, mathematical and verbal skills to assess their college readiness.
SAT EXAMINATION TIPS & TRICKS
Some general tips for SAT examination are as follows :-
1- Read the section references before starting - Read and review the references for each SAT category prior to testing. Use your test time to test and not to learn directions
2- First answer the questions you know - As you read each paragraph, answer all the questions you know first. Mark all questions for review that you don't know the answer and come back later to answer them.
3- Use Elimination method - Sometimes it is easier to remove answers that you know are wrong than to find the right answer. Deleting all the wrong answers often leads to the right answer.
4- Avoid Stray Marking - As the machine checks your test, make sure you do not place any stray marks on your response page. SAT scoring machines often cannot distinguish between the correct answer and the accidental missing mark.
5- Feel free to guess answers - In older versions of the SAT, the candidate was penalised for wrong answers. But not anymore. If you don't know what the answer is then guess. You are not penalised for guessing as there is no negative marking. However, before guessing, always try and remove at least one wrong answer.
6- Managing Time - Spend only a few minutes on simple questions and no more than a minute or two on difficult questions. Don't forget that SAT consists of a few small, time-tested tests. It is easy to lose track of time so make sure you pay attention to how much time is given for each test and how much time is left as you progress through each phase.
For Reading Test
1- Rearrangement of Passages - It will take some practice to get the best outline based on the topic and to learn in complex language, but it is important that you do the roles in the order you want. The reading test is the first test in SAT, so starting this solid test can set the tone for all of your test knowledge.
2- Practice to make your own answers - Just as you can solve Maths Test questions and get the answer that best suits you, you should bring your answer to the Reading Test questions before looking at the decisions. As you practice, you may want to take a sample of Read-out Reading time to write down your answers to the questions and then choose the answer you have chosen depending on which one is closest to yours. While you may be frustrated with some questions, this can help you avoid any confusion in choosing long, partial answers.
3- Identify the “rhetoric” questions - Less than half of the SAT study test questions fall under the category the College Board calls “Rhetoric,” which is related to the structure and development of the role rather than ideas and information. These questions should be considered differently, as many ask about the role played by the various elements of the text, or by the choice of the author. Instead of working with the ideas in the hallway, think about how writing serves the author's purpose.
For Writing & Language Test
1- Perfection in Grammar - The Writing and Language Examination not only tests your grammar knowledge, but forms a large part of it. The Standard English Conventions subscore is based on 20 out of 44 questions, or about five questions per passage, and I find it easier than two subscores to work on. There are many short books available in public libraries, or you can find grammar lessons online.
2- Agreement of Verb - Mistakes in an action-action or declaration-agreement agreement are difficult for students to grasp. Typically, a sentence separates two related parts using prefixed phrases, parentheticals, or appositives. If there is a pronoun or action in the underlined section, find an objection or a related subject and make sure it is the same.
Example - When any one of these changes occur, it is likely the result of careful analysis conducted by transportation planners.
The verb “occur” corresponds to the subject “one”, so it should be changed to “occurs.” The pronoun “it” has the antecedent “one,” so this agrees and should be left alone. Some students would be tempted to choose an answer with “they are” instead of “it is” because the noun “changes” is closer to the pronoun and is plural, but pay attention to the meaning of the sentence.
3- Finding the Style - The roles in the writing and language tests are draft, and each has a different target audience or level of structure. Although official English is suitable for higher education texts, unconventional writing often “violates” certain grammatical rules, such as starting sentences with extensions or inserting pieces of sentences. Do not assume that the most elaborate or “best” answer is best for each question, since each section should cover all the questions.
For Maths Test
1- Clear understanding of Basics - Be clear with the basics of each topic. This will not only help in saving time but also in avoiding confusions.
2- Working with fractions - This is especially important for students who are used to solving all questions with a calculator. Calculators allow you to easily work with decimals, so most no-calculator questions use fractions directly. You should feel free to rewrite fractions, find unusual denominators, and how to divide fractions.
3- Comfortability with fractions - In the same lines and fractions, most questions do not give clear values but instead use only variables, or they use values that are often treated as variables such as pi or e (Euler's number). You may need to rewrite equations or inequalities in terms of other variables, or understand how a variation can change the outcome of an equation. Algebra is a big part of both the no-calculator and calculator components, so it's very interesting to know how to do calculations with flexibility.
