SAT® Test

The SAT® test is the most common globally-recognized college admissions test. Your SAT test scores allow you to get accepted into undergraduate programs by demonstrating your knowledge in areas key to academic success:

• Reading
• Writing
• Language
• Math.

All U.S. colleges and universities accept SAT scores during their admissions process.

The SAT test is offered only in digital format and on fixed dates. Plan to register early as test centers sometimes fill, and allow yourself time to re-test if you are not satisfied with your results.

The SAT® test is a digital test that takes about 2 hours and 15 minutes, primarily involving multiple-choice questions. The test is taken in test centers. Most test takers bring their own laptops to take the test, but you can also request to borrow a device.

If you need to borrow a device to take the SAT test, be sure to request a device when you register online at least 30 days before the test date. Find more information on device lending here.

Scores will be provided online and shared with the institutions you requested when you registered. If you need a paper score report for your own use, be sure to request it when you register. Amideast is not involved in score issuance; for questions on missing scores or to request additional score reports, please contact the College Board.

If you need to have your scores shared with Amideast, please use the institution code 5027 when you select score recipients.

The SAT Reasoning Test is a standardised test that helps universities evaluate applicants' academic knowledge and analytical capabilities. It is also used here in Palestine as a requirmement for the SAT/CLEP/AP Palestinian Tawjihi Equivelancy.

SAT Reasoning 

There are only a few things you really need to bring on test day and a lot of things you'll be better off leaving at home. Be sure to bring:

• Your fully charged testing device with the Bluebook™ application installed (see detailed device requirements).
• Face covering (if required at your test center).
• Your up-to-date admission ticket.
• Acceptable photo ID.
• Pencils or pens for scratch work.
• An acceptable calculator for use on the Math section of the test (there will be an embedded graphing calculator available to use within Bluebook).
• Epinephrine auto-injectors (like EpiPens) are permitted without an approved accommodations. They must be placed in a clear bag and stored under the student's desk during testing. For policies on other medications and medical devices, contact Services for Students with Disabilities.

Nice to Have

• A watch without an audible alarm. (The Bluebook application has a built-in timer that tells you exactly how much time you have left, but you might still want to time your break.)
• A charging cable if your testing device can’t hold a charge for 3 hours.
• A bag or backpack.
• A drink or snacks (for your break).
• A backup testing device.

How do I print my digital SAT admission ticket?
If you've registered for an upcoming digital SAT administration, 1–5 days before your test day, go into Bluebook™, select your test, and complete a short exam setup. The app will generate your admission ticket, which you can print out or email to yourself.

Digital SAT ID Requirements

Your admission ticket isn't enough to get you into the test center. Follow these guidelines so you don't get turned away. You’re responsible for understanding and following these requirements as they appear here.

ID documents must meet all these requirements:

• Be a valid (unexpired) photo ID that is government issued or issued by the school you currently attend. School IDs from the prior school year are valid through the end of December of the current calendar year. (For example, school IDs from 2023-24 can be used through December 31, 2024.)
• Be an original, physical document (not photocopied or electronic).
• Bear your full, legal name exactly as it appears on your admission ticket, including the order of the names.
• Bear a recent recognizable photograph that clearly matches both your appearance on test day and the photo you provided when you registered.
• Be in good condition, with clearly legible English language text and a clearly visible photograph.
