That's definitely not normal.

The majority of high schoolers nowadays take the SATs around Junior year of HS, for the most part.  I took my first one around Sophomore year, which I guess is kind of common for some kids.


For the people who took it before HS, you guys definitely had some rigorous parents.  Even back when the SAT was in the 1600 format, HS was still the norm.
We have SATs in the UK but I guess they're at a different level or just called the same thing while being utterly different. What's the American equivalent to UK SATs? Does anyone here know? Because otherwise ... well, I'm really confused over this. :-\

I'm guessing this is what you're talking about http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_C ... assessment

The State's SATs http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAT

Main difference from just briefly glancing - UK's SATs are a series of standarized tests, at different phases for different ages, I don't know if it factors into university or college acceptance.  For the US SAT's, they are tests that are used to measure aptitude for college admissions, generally taken in HS (however, I believe there is no age restriction, so thus sooner is possible).  There is also another equivalent aptitude test in the States called the ACT, which colleges also accept as a substitute for the SATs.
