<p>So I just took the May 2012 SAT, but found out that my essay topic and passages were all different from those of my friends' who also took the same test, at different locations.</p>
<p>Is this normal?</p>
<p>Well since its like taboo to discuss the essay topic until it’s released, I wouldn’t necessarily go telling the internet that you and all of your friends broke the College Boards rules.</p>
<p>I heard there are 4 different tests every time, 2 in the states and 2 international versions, so that’s probably why.</p>
<p>Lol, “taboo.” Anyways, I’m not completely sure; there is definitely a different international and states test, but I’m not sure that there are multiple different tests within the states its self. You better go into the actual SAT preparation forum and ask or compare your test to what others are talking about.</p>
