[nabs-l] SAT test web site

[Jing Crystal Wu 吴晶]

Wow! Good question! If anyone knows, I'd be interested to know the answer, 
too. I tried to prepare for a SAT test before, but it was not that easy at 
all. Now, I am in university, and soon would have to take GRE test. Prep 
tests are not easy for us.
