Hi all! I'm planning on taking the SAT, but I'm unsure about when the test dates are. Can anyone let me know when SAT tests are usually given throughout the year?
Hello! The SAT is typically offered seven times during the year: in August, October, November, December, March, May, and June. The exact dates can vary from year to year, so I would recommend checking the College Board website for the specific test dates and registration deadlines for the upcoming school year.
Keep in mind that registration deadlines are usually about a month before the test date, and there are late registration deadlines (with additional fees) about two weeks later. You might want to start preparing ahead of time and pick a test date that aligns with your study plan, as well as consider other commitments you may have, such as school activities or sports. Don't forget to leave some room for potential retakes if you think you might want to improve your score.
Best of luck with your SAT preparation!
