Hey y'all! So I'm planning to take the SAT soon, but I'm not exactly sure when they're offered throughout the year. Could anyone provide a rough outline of the SAT testing months? Thanks a bunch!
Hey! The SAT is offered several times during the academic year, typically in the following months:
- March
- May
- June
- August
- October
- November
- December
Please keep in mind that these are general dates, and you should visit the College Board's website to check for specific test dates and registration deadlines. Additionally, while the SAT is usually offered on a Saturday, there might be Sunday test dates available for students who cannot test on a Saturday due to religious reasons.
I would also advise you to plan ahead and give yourself enough time to prepare for the test and decide if you want to retake it. Many students take the SAT for the first time in their junior year and then have the option to retake it during their senior year if needed.
Good luck with your test preparation, and I hope this information helps you plan your SAT scheduling!
