The SAT is one of two comprehensive exams commonly used for college acceptance. The SAT is a multiple-choice, pencil-and-paper test created and administered by the College Board.
The exam is designed to assess a high school student's readiness for college and offers colleges a standardized way to compare applicants.
When reviewing applications, admissions officers consider SAT scores alongside other factors such as GPA, high school coursework, letters of recommendation, extracurricular involvement, interviews, and personal essays.
SAT score requirements vary by school, but generally, earning a higher score on the SAT can increase your chances of admission and increase opportunities for scholarships and financial aid.
English: 50 questions, 45 minutes.
Reading & Writing: 54 questions (divided across 2 modules), 64 minutes.(32 minutes per module)
Mathematics: 44 questions (divided across 2 modules), 70 minutes (35 minutes per module)

The following information is provided to parents and students who qualify for Special Education or Section 504. It is meant to help provide information on the process of applying for accommodations through the College Board (SAT, AP, and PSAT/NMSQT). If you think your child will need accommodations on any test offered by this entity, please be sure to read through the information carefully and take note of BISD campus deadlines that must be adhered to for us to submit requests by College Board deadlines.
To use accommodations on College Board tests, accommodations must be approved by the College Board's Department of Services for Students with Disabilities. With limited exceptions, once approved for accommodations, students remain approved and do not have to reapply when they register for future College Board tests. This includes the SAT, AP, and PSAT/NMSQT programs.
Note that the use of accommodations in school, or on an Individual Education Program (IEP) or 504 Plan, does not automatically qualify a student for accommodations on College Board tests. Students are required to apply separately for College Board testing accommodations.
Not all students with disabilities require accommodations. Some accommodations received by students in school are not necessary for participating in College Board tests. To ensure that the College Board provides the right accommodations, a student's documentation must meet their criteria.
Students who show that their disabilities affect participation in a College Board exam are eligible to take those exams with accommodations. Using accommodations not approved by the College Board results in cancellation of scores. No one is automatically approved.
To be eligible for accommodations on College Board tests, a student must have a documented disability. The documentation needed depends on the student’s disability and the accommodations being requested. In some cases, documentation must be submitted to the College Board.
Information can also be obtained by contacting the College Board directly at:
Services for Students with Disabilities (SSD), College Board SSD Program, P.O. Box 8060, Mt. Vernon, Illinois 62864-0060 Phone: (609) 771-7137
The College Board Parent Consent Form can be found at: Requesting Accommodations
