Digital SAT - What’s NOT Changing?

When it comes to the digital SAT Suite, you might be wondering what's changing and what's not. Well, rest assured, a lot of important things are staying just the way you know them:

1. Measuring What Matters

The digital SAT Suite will still focus on the skills and knowledge you're learning in school. This is what really counts for getting ready for college and your future career. It's like a snapshot of all the great things you're learning. Curious about how the digital SAT assesses these skills? Dive into the Reading & Writing Section details or explore the intricacies of the Math Section.

2. Familiar Score Scale

The scores you get on the digital SAT Suite will be on the same scale as the paper and pencil tests. So if you're used to seeing scores between 400 and 1600, that's not changing! For more on understanding your scores, check out the Scores and Reporting FAQ.

3. Tracking Your Progress

You'll still be able to track your growth across the suite. This means you can see how you're improving and getting even better at what you do. Learn more about how your scores are visualized on the Score Report.

What About the Sections?

The two main sections of the digital SAT Suite (Reading and Writing, and Math) will test similar skills as before. But for a deep dive into the structure and content of these sections, explore our guide on Digital SAT Structure.

Ensuring Fairness and Validity

The College Board is committed to making sure the tests are fair for everyone. They want to be sure the tests measure what they're meant to, and that everyone has a fair shot at doing their best. For students with special requirements, the College Board also offers Support and Accessibility options.

Keeping Up with Standards

The digital SAT Suite will still line up with the academic standards in your state. And even though the digital experience will be smoother, the tests will still be just as tough as the paper ones. For tips on preparation, check out our Easy Prep Tips for Success.

So, while there are exciting changes happening, the core of the SAT Suite is staying strong. You've got this! Keep up the great work!
