The SAT officially became the Digital SAT in 2024

If You Studied for an Older Version of the Exam

Here are some quick highlights on the main differences:

Content Changes

• The Reading & Writing section's passages are now only ~100 words long and have only 1 question. Previously, SAT passages were 500+ words long and had ~10 questions each.
• Other than that, the same general topics and skills are still tested.

Structure Changes

• Most sections now ask fewer questions and take less time.
• The Digital SAT is "module adaptive," meaning that how you perform on the first module determines the difficulty of the 2nd module. For example, if you do well on Math Module 1, you'll see harder questions on Math Module 2.
• Reading and Writing used to be separate sections; they are now combined together.
• The paper SAT had a "no calculator" math section. On the Digital SAT, a calculator can be used on any math question.
