Short-form videos can be surprisingly powerful for SAT/ACT prep—especially when each one teaches a single “micro-skill” you can apply immediately on practice tests. In this article, we’ll group four quick lessons into one theme: how to think and work like a high-scoring test taker. That includes technical accuracy (so you don’t lose points to formatting) and flexible reasoning (so you don’t freeze when a problem feels unfamiliar).
College Board Cancels all Spring SAT ExamsHaving already cancelled its May 2 SAT test date, CollegeBoard announced this past week that it will be canceling its previously scheduled June 6 test date worldwide as well. This means that there will not be another SAT exam offered until August 29 at the very earliest, so nearly six months will have passed between possible SAT administrations for juniors planning to take the exam this year. In making this announcement, CollegeBoard also indicated that it is preparing an online version of the exam in the fall should in-person administrations still be prohibited by the pandemic. This follows in the footsteps of announcements from both GMAC and ETS that, at least temporarily, each organization would be offering and at-home online GMAT and an at-home online GRE exam respecctively.
