[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC took the digital SAT today at school (a DCPS in-school test day)…said it was not nearly as bad as the Saturday test and much closer to the practice tests (though a bit harder).[/quote]

Different day, different test. College Board equates the tests. We will see in a few weeks what that looks like given that students thought the March 9 test was much more difficult than the in-school tests.

for sure...just interesting that it felt so different to DC (and their friends that also took both tests within a few days).  I knew the difficulty varied from test to test but it is somewhat surprising the degree to which the difficulty varies.[/quote]

It's also possible that it felt easier b/c they just took another one. They have more experience now.  [/quote]

I don't think this is it...a lot of the kids that found it so difficult last Saturday had taken all four practice tests that the College Board released.  My DC took one of these "official" practice ones at a test prep center on a Sunday under timed conditions to simulate actual conditions and said last Saturday's test was "1000x harder."[/quote]
