The SAT General Test is for high school students who plan to apply to colleges and universities in the USA. To get better scores, some students enhance their vocabulary skills as a part of the effort to prepare for the SAT exam because vocabulary level plays a vital role in all SAT sections, whether reading or writing.

The SAT Vocabulary Test Online web app provides SAT word question sheets to help test-takers build a more robust vocabulary.
