Taking the Digital SAT?

In March 2016, the SAT change was a better and more relevant version of the earlier massive vocabulary. Rolling out in 2023 abroad, the new Digital SAT is going to give the SAT a fresh guise. 

The Digital SAT is a standardized test used by most colleges and universities to make admissions decisions. The Digital SAT is a multiple-choice, Computer Adaptive Test administered by the College Board. The Digital SAT Suite uses Multistage Adaptive Testing (MST), meaning the Digital SAT Suite fairly and accurately measures the same things with a shorter, more highly secure test while preserving test reliability. 

Why Digital SAT is important? 

1. Most four-year colleges require you to submit an admission test scores as part of your application. 
2. Many colleges publicize the average Digital SAT score of their admitted students. This allows you to see how your score compares with those of the students at the colleges you’re considering. 
3. Some colleges and educational organizations award scholarship money to students based in part on Digital SAT scores.
4. By opting in to the Student Search Service® when you register for the Digital SAT, you can receive free information from colleges and scholarship programs. 
5. It focuses on the skills needed for college.  

Structure of Digital SAT

The Digital SAT is composed of two sections: Reading and Writing and Math. Students have 64 minutes to complete the Reading and Writing section and 70 minutes to complete the Math section for a total of 2 hours and 14 minutes. 

Each section is divided into 2 equal length modules, and there is a 10-minute break between the Reading and Writing section and the Math section. The first module of each section contains a broad mix of easy, medium, and hard questions. Based on how students perform on the first module, the second module of questions will either be more difficult or less difficult.
