Tests are part of a student's life.The purpose of testing is to translate intellectual performance into numbers for comparison within the same standards.The Educational Testins Service(ETS)has created different testing programs for different purposes.The SAT is what universities look at for undergraduate admission.The Graduate Record Examinations(GRE)is for those who are going on to graduate schools.If it is a management school,they prlbably require Graduate Management Admission Test(GMAT)as well.In addition,international students must submit their Test of English as a Foreign Language(TOEFL)scores.
考試是學(xué)生和活的一部分。考試的目的是在相同的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)下把智力轉(zhuǎn)換為數(shù)字來(lái)進(jìn)行對(duì)比。教育考試服務(wù)局(ETS)就洞的目的制定了不同的測(cè)驗(yàn)。校方用SAT(學(xué)術(shù)才能測(cè)驗(yàn))評(píng)判大學(xué)入學(xué)資格。畢業(yè)記錄考試(GRE)是那些要上研究所的學(xué)生考的。如果是要上管理研究所的話，他們也可能被要求考GMAT(畢業(yè)生管理許可考試)。另外還有，國(guó)際學(xué)生必須呈報(bào)他們的托福成績(jī)(TOEFL).
SAT,GRE,and GMAT all have score ranges from 200 to 800.The more useful information is the percentile range,which shows how many percent of the test takers had lower scores than a specific score.The mean score is about 500,but the distribution is not linear.TOEFL now has paper-based and computer-based formats.The paper-based test has scores from 310 to 677,and the computer-based test is 40 to 300.The two systems are interchangeable;ETS has a table showing corresponding scores in the to systems.

Getting high scores on there tests is among the top priorities,but students should never forget that admissiona also look at other criteria before giving out acceptance letters.
在這些考試中拿到高分是最重要;但學(xué)生樣絕不該忘記，學(xué)校招生部寄出錄取信函之前還是會(huì)參考其他的成績(jī)指標(biāo)。
