How much time is allocated per stage of the SAT test?
Here’s a detailed table showing the time allocation per stage for both the traditional and new digital SAT:
| Format | Module | Time Allocated |
|---|---|---|
| Traditional | Reading | 65 minutes |
| Traditional | Writing and Language | 35 minutes |
| Traditional | Math (No Calculator) | 25 minutes |
| Traditional | Math (Calculator) | 55 minutes |
| Total | Traditional SAT | 180 minutes |
| Digital | Reading and Writing | 64 minutes |
| Digital | Math | 70 minutes |
| Total | Digital SAT | 134 minutes |
The traditional SAT test format allocates a total of 180 minutes across four sections. The Reading section is the longest at 65 minutes. In contrast, the new digital SAT, which will be implemented in 2024, reduces the total test time to 134 minutes. This test merges the Reading and Writing sections into a single adaptive module with 64 minutes allocated, and the Maths section also becomes adaptive with 70 minutes allocated. This adaptation allows for a more streamlined testing experience.
