Real question - what is the history of the SAT? It has essentially created a toll tax on every student attempting to enter college/university in the US. Is it a private company?

It's run by The College Board, which is essentially a not-for-profit testing and (more recently) data analytics service.

Some would argue that College Board is barely a nonprofit. See https://nonprofitquarterly.org/2012/10/16/is-the-college-boa...

I never sat for the SAT and got myself a BA so it's apparently not a very good gatekeeper.
