The result was   merge to SAT. I will let other editors take care of the actual merge, as it appears it was already done once in the article history and there is clear consensus here to do so. Cirt (talk) 23:54, 25 September 2008 (UTC)

SAT Essay

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

I was bold and merged this article into its main article SAT, asking to use talk before reverting. Another user reverted and then added a short note on the talk page why. While yes, the SAT Essay was covered in a NYT article, I do not see independent notability for the topic. The SAT Essay is simply less than 1/3 of one section of the SAT and does not have notability on its own. Not that it counts, but the only articles linking here are SAT and the See Also section of Essay. It was a news story when the section was added to the exam three years ago, but I see no reason why this short article with little room for addition and little independent notability cannot be merged with the main article.

 * Merge Just because it is notable does not mean it needs its own article. Zginder 2008-09-21T21:44Z (UTC)
 * Merge It's pretty meaningless outside the context of the SAT. Do the math and reading sections have their own articles? ce1984 (talk) 21:52, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Merge with SAT per above. RockManQ (talk) 23:30, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
