The test will be reduced to 2 hours, as opposed to 3 hours for the current SAT. This is a positive change because it reaffirms the relevance and importance of standardized testing in a post-COVID -19 scenario. Given the ease of administration, College Board anticipates a significant increase in the number of SAT test takers in 2023.

- Scoring- The SAT is scored on a scale of 400 to 1600. Each section is scored out of 800, and the scores are added together to get the total score. The essay section is optional and scored separately on a scale of 2 to 8.
- Reading Section- The Reading section contains 52 questions and is 65 minutes long. The questions in this section measure a student’s ability to comprehend complex texts and draw evidence-based conclusions.
- Writing and Language Section- The Writing and Language section contains 44 questions and is 35 minutes long. The questions in this section measure a student’s ability to identify and correct grammar, usage, and punctuation errors.
- Math Sections- There are two Math sections. The Math (with the calculator) section contains 38 questions and is 55 minutes long. The Math (without a calculator) section contains 20 questions and is 25 minutes long. The questions in these sections measure students’ ability to apply mathematical concepts to solve problems.
