Strategy to Prepare New Digital SAT March 2023

The digital SAT, also known as the SAT Online, is structured similarly to the traditional paper-and-pencil version of the test. The test is divided into three sections: Reading, Writing and Language, and Math (with Calculator). Each section is scored on a scale of 200-800, with a total possible score of 1600. The test also includes an optional Essay section, which is scored separately. The digital SAT is taken on a computer and is administered by the College Board, the organization that oversees the SAT.

Students have 64 minutes to complete the Reading and Writing section and 70 minutes to complete the Math section for a total of 2 hours and 14 minutes.

Each section is divided into 2 equal-length modules, and there is a 10-minute break between the Reading and Writing section and the Math section.
