Beginning March 2024, the SAT will be fully digital. Changes include:

● Adaptive format: each test domain will be divided into two modules. After completing the

first module, the second module will generate questions suited to the students’ proficiency level.

● Duration: the SAT’s duration will decrease from three hours to two hours and 14 minutes.

● Calculator: students will be able to use a calculator on all math problems. The calculator

is built into the testing software.

● Exam Results: score reports will come just a few days after taking the test and include a personalized college and career guidance section. Students will receive information about four-year, two-year, and workforce training programs, as well as career field matching, based on their performance.

● Reading prompts: reading questions will no longer draw from a series of multi- paragraph passages. Students will instead answer each question based off of a corresponding bulleted set of notes. Question content will still be college-level.

• Required hardware: a computer or tablet with separate keyboard is required to take the digital SAT. Contact your school or testing center to see if they will provide the hardware. If you bring your own hardware, make sure it is fully charged and can last at least 3 hours. There is no guarantee an outlet will be available for charging.
