In Brief
The TOEFL or Test of English as a Foreign Language is typically given in order to measure a candidate's ability to understand the English language as it is spoken in North America. People who take this test are typically those who speak English, although not as a first language.
As for the SAT, it is a set of standardized tests in which potential college applicants are deemed worthy of admission via common measuring techniques.
These two tests are the most important given by major colleges in the United States, and the resulting scores are evaluated in order to determine the student’s strengths and weaknesses, and his or her performance level during the first year of college.
Coverage
TOEFL is comprised of three sections: listening comprehension, which gauges the candidate's ability to understand North American English; structure and written expressions, which measures the applicant's ability to distinguish correct grammar in English; and reading comprehension, which tests for the candidate’s ability to understand short English passages. Applicants who take the TOEFL are also typically given a written English test, in which they are assigned a specific topic and required to write an appropriate essay.
As for the SAT, it is comprised of two parts: mathematics and verbal skills. Among the subjects covered in the SAT are English Literature, U.S. History, World History, Level 1 and Level 2 mathematics, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and some languages, with Chinese, German; Spanish, Italian and Japanese being some of the most common.
