Hey guys, I've heard that the SAT is transitioning to a digital format soon. Does anyone know when the last paper-based SAT will be held?
The last paper-based SAT was administered in December 2023. The College Board made the transition to a fully digital SAT starting in spring 2024. Now, the SAT is taken only in the digital format at schools or designated testing centers. Keep in mind that the digital SAT has a different structure and timing compared to the paper-based test, so make sure to familiarize yourself with these changes when preparing for the exam. You can use resources like the Bluebook™ app to get a preview of the digital SAT and take full-length practice tests to get comfortable with the new format. Good luck with your test preparation!
