SAT exam scheduling?

Hi! I've been planning to take the SAT, but I'm not sure about the different dates I can choose from. When can I take the SAT exam during the year?

8 months ago

The SAT is administered by College Board multiple times throughout the year, with test dates usually occurring monthly from August to May, except for September. Here's a general timeline for SAT exam offerings:

- August

- October

- November

- December

- March (no Subject Tests offered on this date)

- May

- June

Exact dates tend to vary slightly each year, so it's essential to make sure you look up the specific SAT dates according to the academic year you're planning to take the test. Additionally, registration deadlines for each test date typically fall about one month before the exam day, so be sure to register by the corresponding deadline.

Keep in mind that some high schools serve as SAT test centers, while others don't. Check your school's status and find nearby test centers on College Board's website. Make sure to register early, as test centers fill up quickly, and you don't want to find yourself traveling too far for your exam.

Lastly, don't forget to take into account your individual schedule and preferences when choosing an SAT test date. Consider factors such as the academic course load, sports or extracurricular activities, and study time needed to prepare for the SAT.
