According to this article by WAPO, CB will suspend the SAT IIs and will soon eliminate the essay.

Yes, I just read that too. Wondering how that will influence college admission and the chancing on collegevine.

@CollegeVineSupport SAT IIs are the subject tests, right?

@Big_Mike_13 that's correct, they are the same thing! "SAT II" is an older term but is still used by many people.
