<p>Or both?
Just wondering, thanks!</p>
<p>I emailed College Board about when prep material would be out for the new SAT. This was their reply.
*The redesigned SAT will not launch until spring 2016. In the meantime, students will be taking the current SAT. Once we have materials to help our current SAT takers prepare, we will work closely with our partners at Khan Academy to provide a whole suite of materials to support the redesigned SAT. Students will be able to review and reinforce the topics covered on the exam and find out what to expect on exam day. For information pertaining to new SAT material, please check with our website deliveringopportunity.org. If you are in need of immediate assistance feel free to contact The College Board at 866-630-9305. Representatives are available Monday through Friday, from 8:30 AM to 6 PM. *</p>
<p>Ugh :l
I hope they can make it within the next year, otherwise students will have less than a year to stufy
Thanks for the info!</p>
<p>Have they released any sample questions for the new SAT format yet? That sounds like a kind of waffling we-have-no-idea-when-any-of-this-will-be-ready kind of response. It would be really nice to see at least one sample of the new SAT for those of us who are caught in the middle of this transition.</p>
<p>The deliveringopportunity.org website says this:
I have a freshman and feel caught in the middle as well.</p>
<p>Such good info you got us @SoWest
Yea, I have the feeling, a lot of people are saying the ACT will pass the SAT even further because of the confusion</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
<p>I am happy to share. This is from Khan Academy:
So it appears that the ‘new’ test prep isn’t out yet.</p>
<p>Khan Academy(KA) does have some new content for the current SAT. As far as I can tell based on the questions shown on their website, Collegeboard gave KA two prior SAT tests. The questions from these tests are what appear under practice for the SAT. One of the test is from May 2010 SAT, and the other I cannot identify. If students need to practice for the current SAT, they can use the KA explanations for these two tests. </p>
<p>As far as the new SAT, Collegeboard has not released any so far. They do plan on releasing sample questions on April 2016 as mentioned by @SoWest. However, KA will be given access to additional practice questions for the new SAT beginning in 2015. What I don’t know if this would be exclusive to KA, or others will have direct access to them as well. I hope that I also get full access to them along with other tutors as well.</p>
<p>Cheers</p>
<p>2015 gives me enough time to study, thanks</p>
<p>@SATQuantum What exactly will be released on April 16? A complete sample exam like the practice exams released once per year (as on your website)? Just a handful of questions? </p>
<p>@satteacher</p>
<p>My best guess is that they will breakdown the subject matter and give example problems. For example, I only know about the SAT math and this is what I think they will do. </p>
<p>Problem Solving and Data Analysis: Ratios, proportions, graph charts, circle graphs, mean, median, etc. </p>
<p>Algebra: Quadratics, Proeprties of Functions, Linear system of equations, etc. </p>
<p>Passport to Advanced Math: Trigonometry(like ACT), etc. </p>
<p>They will likely provide example problems for each of the three categories, perhaps 10 each. </p>
<p>I doubt they will release a full test at this stage. They probably don’t have enough data. And for sure they will have an updated Official Study Guide in 2015.</p>
<p>We will just have to wait and see. </p>
<p>@SoWest, thanks for finding us the info.</p>
<p>I’d really like to see a full length test. One of my concerns is that the time-pressure of the test will be increased, since the questions are going to be easier. My daughter says she is a slow reader and I’d like to see if there is much difference for her on the two tests. This is part of the info I would like to have to decide whether it’s worth trying to test as a sophomore.</p>
<p>Personally, I’m eager to see the non-calculator type questions.</p>
