In my experience, SATs measure nothing - only how well you can take the SAT, after taking a prep course my score went up like 200 points. One of my friends got a perfect score on the ACT after doing alright on the SAT. Some colleges are no longer taking it into account because everyone knows how BS it is.

EDIT: and to make it worse the college board charges exorbitant prices for everything involved in the process - it’s ridiculous
