SAT is offered by the College Board of the United States. The Hong Kong Examinations and Assessment Authority (HKEAA) is one of the examination centres appointed by the Examination Testing Service (ETS) to hold SAT in Hong Kong.

The SAT Reasoning Test is the most widely used and most rigorously researched college admissions test in history. Virtually every college in the United States accepts the SAT as a measure of the critical thinking skills students need for academic success in college. The SAT assesses how well students analyze and solve problems - skills learned in school that are needed in college. The test also provides an independent measure of a student's college readiness that is standardized across all students, schools, and communities, providing a common and objective scale for comparison.

The SAT Subject Tests are designed to measure students' knowledge and skills in particular subject areas, as well as their ability to apply that knowledge. The tests are independent of any particular textbook or method of instruction, and many colleges use them for admissions, for course placement, and to advise students about course selection.

According to the current arrangement, the SAT Reasoning Test and Subject Tests are offered six times a year in October, November, December, January, May and June internationally except for the US. In the US, the SAT Reasoning Test is also offered in March besides the above schedule. Registration for taking these tests in Hong Kong must be done online via the Web site of the College Board at www.collegeboard.com.
