Hi there princess, (what are you doing here, princesses order stuff to their servants! Anyhow your dad would be really angry)

1- should i really go for this? Yes why not but you may face difficulties in Maths
2-and about the subjects? what kinda subjects any suggestions? SAT1 has English and Maths.
3-how many subjects are recommended and are compulsory? SAT2 gives you the choice of subject not SAT1
4-and when to give papers? after 2 months? :S Up to you! Its not necessary to be fully prepared
5-and how to register.? collegeboard.com
6- are there any sample past papers.? Yes you may find them on the above website and in many practice books

Wait what ? I though SAT is only useful for applying to universities abroad. Also, only SOME universities in Pakistan accept SAT scores as a substitute for the entry test. If that's the case, then I don't think it's really useful to do it.

First and foremost, the scores remain valid for 3 years [this used to be 5 years but was reduced only recently] in most universities (2 in a lot too)

Giving them in the first year of your O Levels would mean at least 4 years until you start applying to universities. So, in essence, you'd merely be wasting 91$.
I'll suggest you wait till you're done with your O's. That is, the October following the MJ session you get done with your all your Os OR March following the ON session when you get done with your O's.

Additionally, I've made (or tried to make) a thread covering details and tips pertinent to the SAT. You might want to refer to it for answers + additional details. https://www.xtremepapers.com/community/threads/the-sati-details-and-tips-thread.28301/ And, IMO, the Math in the SAT is near the level of O Level Math. If you know your Math at O Levels you'll do well in the Math section here.
