The SAT, a college admissions exam that for nearly a century was completed using paper and pencil, is now officially all-digital.
.
This week, students in the U.S. will begin taking the new SAT on their own devices — including a tablet or a laptop — or on school devices. The test is also one hour shorter (down from three hours), has shorter reading passages and uses digital tools, like a highlighter, a graphing calculator and a bookmark to go back to skipped questions.
.
The revamped test, which ditches the paper and pencil, aims to make cheating harder and grading easier.
.
Students will still take the exam at a test center or at a high school. [/quote] -
Wonder how they will prevent cheating, especially is using your own device?

I hope they finally designed the tests with equality in mind.
I would hate to see someone be disappointed with their score.
