International Examinations

In addition to the Finnish matriculation examination and after taking the preparatory mathematics and English courses offered by the school, students are able to take the Preliminary Scholastic Aptitude Test (PSAT), which prepares them for the SAT.

The English School now offers the Digital SAT in May, and the Digital PSAT in October every year.

The SAT is a globally recognized college admission test that helps students demonstrate to universities what they know and how well they can apply that knowledge. It tests students’ knowledge of reading, writing, and math. Most students take the SAT during their junior or senior year of high school, and all American universities use the SAT to make admission decisions. SAT scores can help students with their applications to some universities in Finland, such as the Aalto University School of Business.

Preparing for the SAT will also improve students’ skills on a more general level, which will improve their competencies in all areas of their education including their matriculation examinations.
