GET YOUR TEEN READY FOR THE NEW SAT

摘要

Parents and teachers need to become aware of what is coming for students in the spring of 2016 when they view their test books for the new SAT. This test, touted by the College Board as more focused and practical compared to the SAT exams students have faced since 2005, no longer will require a timed essay. Other major changes include a return to the familiar 1,600-point scoring scale. This major overhaul arrives as the ACT has increased in popularity; administrators at the SAT seem determined to stay relevant and competitive for those millions of dollars at stake in today's hypercom-petitive college admissions world.
