I know that there are some juniors out there who plan on taking the new SAT in March, so I decided to create this thread for discussion about preparations, plans, or anything about the new format in general.
This is a thread for anyone considering to take the SAT on Saturday, March 5, 2016 in the United States.
Use this thread to discuss preparation tips. The registration deadline is Friday, February 5, 2016.
After the examination, you may discuss test questions, but do so at your own risk. Do NOT, however, post links to Google Docs, as they will be removed. On a similar note, do not ask for them either.
Good luck!
NOTE: This is the first administration of the new SAT. For more information, visit https://collegereadiness.collegeboard.org/.
