Frequently asked questions about the SAT

How early should you take the SAT?

The majority of high school students opt to take the SAT during the fall or spring of their junior year. However, if you are planning to apply to any colleges early, then you may want to plan on taking it sooner rather than later. You should discuss your college plans with your parents/caretakers and your high school counselor to hear when they think the best time for you to take the test is.

How many times can I take the SAT?

Students can take the SAT as many times as they would like. However, it’s important to remember that each time you take the SAT costs money and quite a bit of your time. It is recommended that you take the SAT at least twice, as many students end up scoring better on their second attempt.

Is tenth grade too early to take the SAT?

While tenth grade is not too early to take the SAT, you should see what your school’s policies are about students and the SAT. Many schools require their tenth graders to take the PSAT. The PSAT, also known at the practice or preliminary SAT, is a great way to prepare for the SAT. So, before spending your own money on an exam, speak with a guidance counselor about your school’s policies.
