The Digital SAT Timeline: What You Need to Know to Prepare

The Digital SAT Timeline: What You Need to Know to Prepare

The SAT Suite of Assessments is now fully digital. The change rolled out in stages: international test centers switched to the digital SAT in March 2023, the PSAT/NMSQT and PSAT 8/9 went digital in fall 2023, and every SAT in the U.S., including SAT School Day, has been digital since spring 2024.

For today’s students that means every practice test should be taken digitally, ideally in the same Bluebook app used on test day. Current test dates and registration deadlines are always listed on the College Board’s SAT website.

Preparation is key to success, and students preparing for the Digital SAT have plenty of official tools and resources at their disposal. Here are the most useful ones.

One of the standout tools for practice is the Bluebook™ testing app. This app allows students to take full-length practice tests in a digital format, mimicking the actual testing experience. These Official SAT Practice Tests are adaptive, providing students with an authentic feel for the digital SAT while they prepare. Additionally, the app features a range of test preview questions that allow students to familiarize themselves with the digital testing environment and practice using the available tools.

Make the most of these resources and build in several full-length digital practice tests before test day.
