The Swedish Scholastic Aptitude Test (högskoleprovet) is a standardised aptitude test administered twice a year. The test assesses verbal and quantitative ability and yields a score on a scale of 0.0–2.0. The result can be used as an alternative selection criterion for university admission.
Usage
Universities must allocate at least one-third of places to selection based on the Scholastic Aptitude Test result. The test provides a second chance for individuals whose upper-secondary grades are not sufficient for their desired programme. The test is voluntary and requires a fee.
