You must have heard of the SAT test, but have you heard of the College Board? This is a college entrance examination committee established by the College Board. Colleges and universities in higher education institutions will use the College Board's standardized tests as a benchmark to test students' academic abilities. Students who are preparing for the SAT exam all want to know in which month it is easiest to get a high score by taking the exam. AEI will answer this question for you!

➤College Board’s operating model for the SAT test
First of all, College Board has the habit of storing multiple test papers. When the exam date approaches, they will randomly select one test paper as the test question for that month. This mode of randomly selecting test papers also fundamentally avoids the question of which month's test questions are easier due to various factors.

➤Why are standardized tests fair?
What is a standardized test? Standardization is a mechanism for adjusting test results by measuring overall candidate performance. Suppose that the June exam questions are relatively simple, and the average candidate gets 90 out of 100 questions correct. The 9th exam is more difficult, with the average candidate getting 85 questions out of 100. Then the score for 90 questions and 85 questions will be the same.

This mechanism balances the fairness of the exam, and the scoring method is generally called equating. Depending on the difficulty of each exam, the scoring method will be slightly adjusted. For simple test papers, the penalty for one wrong question will be heavier. In contrast, for difficult papers, the penalty will be more lenient. Students will not get higher scores just because they are lucky enough to get easy test papers. College Board tries its best to achieve a balanced score for each test.

➤The key is to stay down to earth and prepare well for the SAT exam!
SAT is a test that can effectively and accurately classify students’ academic ability. Strength will be reflected in their scores. There is no such thing as a free lunch. In life, we always hope to find a shortcut to reach our destination quickly, but this is often not the wisest choice.

When preparing for the SAT exam, don't be bothered by all the good-sounding prejudices, but firmly choose to prepare well and move towards your goal step by step. AEI will lead students to avoid detours and build the foundation of the student academic building step by step.
