as you probably know, as of march 2016, the sat is in a new format<\/a>. the new sat is substantially different from the old version of the exam. the test design has been simplified\u2014there are now five sections instead of ten. while both versions of the exam have an essay section, the essay is now optional. every component of the sat, including the essay, has a new format and a shift in the skills it focuses on.<\/p>\n

in this post, we\u2019ll show changes to the overall exam and individual aspects of the exam in a series of charts.<\/p>\n

essay format: new vs old sat<\/h2>\n

at an overview, you can see that the new version of the exam is certainly simpler and more \u201cuser-friendly.\u201dstill, this does not necessarily mean that the new sat is easier in every respect. some basic trigonometry has been added to the math section and geometry is now being downplayed in favor of other math skills that often require more complex calculations (advanced algebra, probability, etc.). reading and writing have eliminated shorter readings in favor of questions based exclusively on longer passages. although the new sat essay is optional it\u2019s also much more challenging, requiring test-takers to carefully analyze a written piece rather than independently expressing their own opinions on social issues.all in all, the new sat is easier in some ways and harder in others. it\u2019s easier because it has fewer sections and more straightforward organization. most students will also find certain portions of the new sat a bit harder academically, but these changes can be a blessing in disguise. the new sat is designed to help college applicants fully prepare for current expectations from universities as higher education itself continues to grow and change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
