SAT

The SAT is a standardized test widely used for college admissions in the United States. It was first introduced in 1926, and its name and scoring have changed several times, being originally called the Scholastic Aptitude Test, then the Scholastic Assessment Test, then the SAT I: Reasoning Test, then the SAT Reasoning Test, and now simply the SAT.

The SAT (formerly Scholastic Aptitude Test, Scholastic Assessment Test, SAT I: Reasoning Test, and SAT Reasoning Test) is a college admissions test in the United States.

Śat is a letter of the Ge'ez abugida, descended from South Arabian . It represents both a historical "s"(a voiceless alveolar fricative) and "ṯ" (a voiceless dental fricative).
