Isn't this just the same test but online?
The College Board isn’t just going to take the paper-and-pencil test and put it on the computer. We’re taking the opportunity to make the SAT a far better test experience for you. 

What's staying the same?

• Still measuring the knowledge and skills that matter most to universities. 
• Still scored on a 1600 scale. 
• Still administering in schools or test centers with a proctor present (not at home). Test centers will continue to be open to all students, not just those enrolled in that school. 
• Still offering access to free, world-class practice resources. 
• Still supporting all students, including those who need accommodation on test day. 

What's changing?

• You’ll take the SAT on a laptop or tablet. 
• You’ll take a shorter test, about 2 hours instead of 3. 
• You’ll have shorter reading passages instead of a few long texts. 
• You’ll be allowed to use your calculator on the entire math section and there’s a calculator built right into the digital testing application.

What to bring and do on test day
