Hey everyone! I'm taking he SAT in August and I'm curious about when I'll see my results. I've heard various things about when I'll get them. Can someone clarify how many weeks it typically takes for the August SAT results to come out?
The College Board typically releases SAT scores about 10 to 13 days after you take the exam. Assuming you're taking the SAT on a Saturday—which is the most common test day—this would mean you'll likely receive your scores on a Friday or the following Tuesday. However, this is an estimated timeline and can be subject to changes depending on particular circumstances.
For example, if there's any issue with your test center or your exam like a misprint or a processing error, it might delay getting your scores. So it's a good idea to regularly check your account on the College Board's website for updates since they post scores as they become available.
Just a heads up though, not all scores are posted at the same time on the release date. They are usually released in batches throughout the day, so don't panic if you don't see your scores first thing in the morning on the expected date. Stay calm and patient, and rest assured that your results will be available to you soon!
