HOW SAT GOES DIGITAL IN 2024 TO MEET STUDENT NEEDS (2178 hits)
For Immediate Release!
What to Expect
The SAT Suite of Assessments is adapting to meet the evolving needs of students and educators. Priscilla Rodriguez, Vice President of College Readiness Assessments, shares more about what’s changing.
When Will Students Take the Digital Test?
We will make the transition to the digital SAT at international test centers in March of 2023 and at U.S. schools and test centers in spring of 2024.
Most students take the SAT for the first time in spring of their junior year of high school.
So students testing internationally in the class of 2024 will be the first to take the digital SAT.
In the U.S., students in the high school class of 2025 will be the first class to take the digital test.
All students will take the digital PSAT 8/9, PSAT 10, and PSAT/NMSQT starting in fall 2023.
What’s Staying the Same
While the digital SAT Suite will bring a number of student- and educator-friendly changes, many important features of the SAT Suite will stay the same.
Scores Will Remain on the 1600 Scale
The SAT will be scored on the same 1600 scale and educators and students can continue to track growth across the suite over time.
