SAT Test Format

The SAT measures reading, writing, and math with an optional essay section.

  • For reading: Students get 65 minutes to complete 54 questions.
  • For writing: Students get 35 minutes to complete 44 MCQs.
  • For Maths: A total of 80 minutes divided into two sections, namely with and without a calculator.

Digital SAT: The SAT is now available in a digital format, offering a more flexible testing experience for students. In the digital SAT, all sections of the test are administered on a computer, with features such as highlighting, flagging questions for review, and the ability to navigate between questions easily.

What has Changed?
The transition to Digital SAT has brought some student and evaluator-friendly changes to the exam experience, but the exam continues to evaluate the same skills and knowledge as before. The Digital SAT is shorter and takes only 2 hours and 14 minutes instead of 3 hours. The length has been reduced for reading passages with only 1 question, and students will now be able to use a built-in calculator for the math section. Now, students will get 64 minutes to complete 54 questions from the Reading and writing sections and 70 minutes for the 44 questions in the math section

The SAT is offered several times a year at various test centres worldwide.
To register for the SAT, students can create an account on the College Board website and select their preferred test date and location. Registration deadlines typically fall several weeks before the test date, so planning and registering as early as possible is essential.

However, as a general guideline, A score above 1200 (out of 1600) is considered competitive for most colleges. Ivy League and other top-tier universities may require scores above 1400 for solid consideration
