What's Different About Digital

Students use Bluebook™, the College Board testing app, to take the test on a device they bring to your test center.

The digital SAT is more secure, with application lockdown functionality and unique content for each student.

Bluebook times students individually, so if their start times are slightly different, their break and end times will be too.

Test center staff use Test Day Toolkit, an intuitive web application, to administer the test. It walks proctors through test day and displays a short script they read aloud.

Instead of receiving paper forms and large manuals for use throughout the testing season, you’ll need to return to this website for each new administration to download the latest versions of the guides and other resources that supplement the toolkit.

Some test accommodations that were previously administered during a school-based SAT administration are now offered in a test center. For example, because the test is shorter, students approved for double-time will test in 1 day in the test center.

Fundamentals

This website and the resources shared here are only for digital SAT testing staff. The recruitment flyer can be shared with potential proctors and monitors, but everything else should be shared with confirmed staff only. College Board will email staff with the password needed to access some resources. Visit our International SAT Dates and Deadlines page for digital SAT test date and registration information.

Training

We've created short, self-paced training modules to introduce the new procedures for administering the digital SAT. Training is required for all staff. Topics include test day procedures, Test Day Toolkit, technology, and test center planning.

Resources

The password to access documents on this page is the same for all PDF downloads that require one. It can be found in the latest email from College Board. Additional documents coming soon: Proctor Script Practice Resource and School-Based Accommodations Guide.
