SAT Transitions to All-Digital Format Amid Mixed Reactions

The SAT's shift to a digital format aims to modernize the exam, but students report varying experiences with the new system.

The SAT has moved to an entirely digital format, marking a significant change from its 98-year history of paper-based testing.
Students generally welcomed the shorter, more flexible digital exam, though some experienced technical glitches.
The digital SAT is designed to be adaptive, adjusting the difficulty of questions based on student performance.
Critics argue the new format could disadvantage students not accustomed to digital testing environments.
Colleges have mixed responses to the SAT's role in admissions, with some reinstating it as a requirement while others continue to make it optional.
