Hi there, I'm planning on taking the SAT soon but really can't find the exact start time of the test. Does anyone know about it? Thanks in advance!
Hey there! Typically, students taking the SAT are required to arrive at the testing center no later than 7:45 AM, though times might slightly vary depending on location. Once there, students will need to check in, find their testing room, and settle in, which may take some time. The actual testing usually starts around 8:30 AM after all preparations and instructions are over.
With the recently implemented digital format, however, there's more flexibility in the timing of the test. Schools or test centers may choose to administer the exam at different times throughout the day. So, it's best to check with your specific test center for accurate information about when the test will start.
Remember to bring a valid ID, approved calculator, and extra batteries just in case. Good luck with your test prep!
