[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Online testing will be a disaster. Great! The next cheating scandal and the colleges know it.[/quote]

+1 I think test optional is a much better choice than online because of the potential cheating, which will happen.[/quote]

Going online was bound to happen anyway, the virus just sped up the process. The GRE has been online for years now. [/quote]
Yeah but you’re not taking the GRE at your house. You go to a testing center and go through airport-style security to make sure you’re not smuggling anything in. (I took it a few years ago and had to roll up my pants legs and sleeves, etc.)[/quote]

[b]And now they will be taking it at home like everyone else. After the coronavirus is over the SAT will move to all online at testing centers/ computer labs. [/quote][/b]

I’m willing to bet this will not happen because it will clearly benefit the “haves” and further disadvantage the “have nots”.  Not sure why College Board would even push this as an option.  They are desperate to keep their test business alive.[/quote]
