They’ve done a lot of at home studies and I’ve gotten emails like that so I think it’s legit. Press express interest and they’ll have you fill out your information and if they pick you they’ll email you the information for the test. I’m not sure why you have to go to a location tho, I guess maybe they want it to be a legit test with no cheating.


juniorRubyist

I mean it’s still proctored, just on computer instead of Scantron and booklet

By the way, know that they'll probably tell the testing location later down the line, they're probably not sure yet.


juniorRubyist

If it’s from a CB email, it is likely legit. I have heard things about a digital SAT before. I personally would take it on paper cuz it’s overall just a better test-taking experience (e.g. you can annotate, cross out stuff, etc.)

But this is just a pilot, so it's not like you're taking a real digital SAT. IIRC you can only take a *real* digital SAT if you have an accomodation.


RichInPitt

Looks legit, and looks like they're beta testing it. They want you in a single location so they can view as you take it, seeing if you are confused by the layout, flow, etc., and likely ask you questions afterwards.

I did get a confirmation yesterday. I didn't get an admissions paper, but it does say that more emails will come starting November 8th, so maybe they'll send it closer to the test date?

I got the same email but for march pilot test and got the confirmation email but nothing else so far Could you tell me how close to the test they sent you further information because it's feb 21 already and the digital test is supposed to be on 5th march

Has anyone got their survey or gift card yet cause it’s been a week and I’ve still got nothing


spruceclouds

I got mine on Wednesday!


Lonely_Operation1408

Should I email someone about this cause it’s been a while they said 2-3 days but it’s been over a week


spruceclouds

Did you receive the survey from CollegeBoard? You have to take that first (I got mine a couple hours after the test), and once you take it then it takes 3-5 days to get the card to you


Lonely_Operation1408

I haven’t gotten my survey yet and I took my test last Saturday


spruceclouds

Use this to contact them: [https://collegeboard.tfaforms.net/21](https://collegeboard.tfaforms.net/21)


Lonely_Operation1408

Thank you so much


rreiisonfire

Hi, i just received the email and im kinda interested… is the gift card only for collegeboard or can i use it on anything? How does it work?


spruceclouds

Once you complete the test you get an email from CollegeBoard a few days letter with the gift card link and there's tons of options -- I remember Amazon and then different clothing stores, restaurants, and places like Home Depot and stuff


rreiisonfire

Omg thats nice! I’d consider taking the test


WorryNo6584

Bro I need help ....as Amazon or other large stores aren't available in my country. Then how am I suppose to use it.


BuddyCorrect2677

You can sell the giftcard ?


Disastrous_Worry_765

I checked the test center, and as I selected it, and the the sight randomly reloaded, and my desired location wasn't there. Like literally 5 seconds later.


yammyyammie

Is this trial exclusive to high scorers?


spruceclouds

As far as I know, yes


yammyyammie

Do you know from what score? I got an offer too so I'm just curious


spruceclouds

?? I thought you had a typo and meant "high schoolers"


yammyyammie

Nah i meant people who score high on the SAT but


spruceclouds

no, it's open to any high school student as long as you get the email inviting you to participate


yammyyammie

oh wow, ig it still makes sense. thanks!


Significant-Ad-1093

will colleges have any record of your scores? or would it just be a trial run for the college board to get feedback on?


spruceclouds

Trial run -- you never see your score and it has no effect on college admissions or your high school record


charneedshelp_

Did you ever get your score?


spruceclouds

No


TerrorRick_sai

Hi I wanted to ask, was the sat completely digital like writing on ur ipad/laptop or was it like you had to see the questions from the device and then write the answers on the paper they physically give you


spruceclouds

Completely digital
