Need Help With Digital SAT

So I recently heard about the digital SAT. Does anyone know how the reference sheet works and the rules about using it? Also, how will accessing scores differ from the traditional paper SAT?

For the digital SAT, the reference sheet is built directly into the math modules. There's an icon or button you can select to bring it up when you're working on math questions. Remember that, unlike the old paper SAT, you're now allowed to use your calculator on all of the math questions as the no-calculator section has been removed.

As for scores, taking the SAT digitally doesn't fundamentally change how you will receive them. Upon completing the digital SAT, your scores will become available to you online via the College Board website. This is the same location where you would have accessed scores from the paper version of the SAT. The main difference is that the turnaround time to receive scores from the digital SAT is anticipated to be quicker than the traditional paper SAT, meaning you'll get your results faster! This is due to the fact it's easier and quicker to process these scores in a digital format compared to needing to scan and read paper tests.

Just make sure to log into your College Board account to access these scores when they become available. If you set up a College Board account when you registered for the SAT, then your scores should automatically be linked to that account.
