  • Math

  • Critical Reading

  • Writing

The addition of the new writing section takes the test time up to 3 hours and 45 minutes.

The Exam will cost $50.00. A $27.00 penalty is assessed if students miss the registration deadline which is usually about a month prior to the exam.
 
SAT Subject Tests are also required for admission at some universities.  Students may take up to 3 subject tests on the same test date.  Subjects include math, science, history, literature, and foreign languages. Review your college admissions requirements to see if you must take subjects test and which ones.
