Unlike the regular SAT, SAT Subject Tests are designed to measure what you know about specific disciplines. With more than 20 tests available, figuring out which tests to take and when can be a little confusing to say the least.
One point to be cautious about is that the subject choices available do not necessarily match up well with the subjects you may have chosen to pursue at A-Level. It is important to remember when considering SAT Subject Tests that they test the subjects as taught in an American High School. We would therefore encourage you to approach subjects such as World History with caution.
Unsure which SAT Subject Tests to pick?
CollegeBoard, the makers of the SAT and SAT Subject Tests, has a variety of information available on their website (www.collegeboard.com). You can find a breakdown of the subjects and format of the test, as well as online practice questions. It's also important to check the test dates on which you can take the Subject Tests, as not all dates are available for each of the subject tests (for example language tests with listening are only available on the November Test date).
