"Next year's report will reflect the impact of covid-19 on the class of 2021."įor the class of 2021, the College Board has asked colleges to be flexible with students who have not had the opportunity to test, test late, or may have only tested once. Guided by the expertise of public health officials, we are working with schools and communities to safely administer the SAT where possible and give members of the class of 2021, who have faced unprecedented disruption, the same opportunities," said Priscilla Rodriguez, VP, College Readiness Assessments. "Members of the class of 2020 were able to take the SAT before covid caused shutdowns across the world-on the weekend and increasingly in the school setting during the school day-and stand out in admissions. Local test sites determine whether testing may take place in accordance with public health and safety requirements, including those required by the College Board. The College Board is holding SAT administrations each month, including a recent one in August, through the end of the year to ensure that students can test safely. Test administrations were canceled in the spring and summer due to the pandemic. Disruptions to the SAT schedule caused by the virus have affected members of the class of 2021.
While many students were unable to take the SAT due to the impact of covid-19, the overwhelming majority of students in the class of 2020 who wanted to test were able to sit for an SAT administration before the virus caused global shutdowns.
New York-Nearly 2.2 million students in the high school class of 2020 took the SAT, essentially remaining level with the class of 2019, according to the 2020 SAT Suite of Assessments Program Results released today.
