College Board recently announced more changes to the SAT by reducing the length of the exam. These updates follow changes in 2021 that removed the subject exams. It’s clear that because many colleges are now making SAT optional, College Board feels pressure to make more changes.
However, College Board now moves the SAT exam completely online, when broadband access isn’t always a given. I am disappointed about these changes that are not aimed at promoting access and equity. The SAT is inherently flawed, as it still perpetrates socioeconomic status.
