The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) said Monday it\u2019s reinstating requirements that students provide scores from the SAT or ACT standardized tests for future admissions. At the start of the pandemic, many schools waived standardized test requirements for incoming students or, like MIT, made reporting them optional.<\/a> <\/p>\n
The temporary change was meant to relieve some of the unprecedented stresses and obstacles students graduating from US high schools in 2020, 2021, and 2022 were facing. In 2020, the College Board, which administers the SAT<\/a>, said millions of students had been unable to take the test as scheduled in the spring of 2020 due to COVID-19 restrictions. It asked colleges and universities to be flexible in their admissions processes. The nonprofit that administers the ACT admissions test also announced disruptions<\/a> for students taking that test. <\/p>\n
\nThe SAT plans to go all-digital for US students in 2024<\/q><\/aside>\n<\/div>\nBut MIT Dean of Admissions and Student Financial Services Stu Schmill wrote in a new blog post that its assessment of incoming students is improved when it has access to the students\u2019 test results.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur research shows standardized tests help us better assess the academic preparedness of all applicants, and also help us identify socioeconomically disadvantaged students who lack access to advanced coursework or other enrichment opportunities that would otherwise demonstrate their readiness for MIT,\u201d Schmill wrote. \u201cWe believe a requirement is more equitable and transparent than a test-optional policy.\u201d He added that standardized test performance \u201cis not the central focus of our holistic admissions process,\u201d and said MIT will give consideration to students who may still be unable to safely take one of the standardized tests. <\/p>\nIt remains to be seen how many other schools may follow MIT\u2019s example and reinstate their own standardized test requirements. According to nonprofit education organization FairTest, more than 1,800 schools made standardized test scores an optional part<\/a> of their admissions process for the high school class of 2022. <\/p>\n
The College Board has also tried to make taking the SAT more practical in other ways. The organization said in January<\/a> that it\u2019s doing away with the old-fashioned pencil and paper exams, and will go all-digital for future tests, starting in 2024 in the US and 2023 for other countries. Students will take the test at testing centers, and the length of time to take the test will be reduced from three hours to two hours. The College Board also said it will allow more time per question, and reading passages \u201cwill reflect a wider range of topics that represent the works students read in college.\u201d Calculators will be allowed during the SAT\u2019s math section, and the test results will be available to students more quickly.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
