What is the digital version of the SAT?
College Board, the creator of the SAT, is making significant changes to the test's content and administration to better accommodate students and educators. One of the most notable changes is transitioning from a traditional paper-and-pencil test to a digital assessment platform accessed via computer. The shift to digital will provide many advantages for students and educators, such as improved security and relevance, as well as ease of use. The new digital SAT will continue to measure the knowledge and skills that students are learning in school, and that are crucial for college and career readiness.
The SAT Suite's vital components will remain unchanged despite the digital transition, and only the mode of administration will be altered. The transition to digital testing will occur gradually over the next two years, with the digital SAT being administered to international students starting in March 2023 and to all students, including those within the US, beginning in spring 2024.
