I thought they were compulsory and administered by the school you are attending? I really don't know...I think I did a SAT but that was a while back. Or was it a PSAT? Actually is there such a thing as a PSAT?

You're probably thinking of the PSAT.

Neither is compulsory. There's a great deal of pressure to take them, because everyone in America should go to college, but you aren't required by any means.
"PSAT/NMSQT stands for Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test. It's a fee-based standardized test that provides first-hand practice for the SAT Reasoning Test. It also functions as a qualifying test for the National Merit Scholarship Corporation scholarship programs."

1) Those little ideas from mathematics, physics, chemistry, and medicine that have improved life have also made man better. You can't realize your potential as a corpse.
2) Do you seriously only value knowledge in terms of the benefits it gives? The humanities are only good because they improve people? There's no inherent value in knowledge just for the sake of knowledge?
3) Most scientists and mathematicians aren't in it for improving mankind or deriving practical benefits. They are driven by a fundamental curiosity and desire to understand the universe. You have a pathetically shallow understanding of the motivations of science.
