A question about the current SAT standardized tests

[hagopbul]

hello :

i saw a sat book few days ago and noticed that it is only english and elementary math , i was surprised do you need to pass only sat to enroll in a university why there is no sat object , for example sat physics , sat math , sat chemistry ,...etc

in order to help student with the sat exam you only need to prepare in this subjects ?

Best Regards

There used to be SAT subject tests a few years ago before they were discontinued. There are a separate set of advanced courses with accompanying tests that most U.S. high school students will have available to them.

EDIT: P.S. The whole standardized testing environment is in flux right now in the U.S. Some universities are dropping requirements for SAT scores. There is a broader movement opposed to standardized tests afoot (wrongheaded in my view).
