As you prepare for the big day, remember that there are a few items that you must have on the Test day and not having can create hassle for you on the test day. Here’s a distilled guide to what you should bring to ensure a smooth SAT experience:
- Tech-Ready: Charge your device fully and preload it with the Bluebook™ app, completing all exam setups in advance. Check the app for detailed device requirements to avoid any last-minute hiccups.
- Ticket in Hand: Secure your updated admission ticket via the Bluebook app. While the test id digital, you will be needing a printed copy of the Admission Ticket to get an entry on the test center. You can retrieve your ticket five days prior to the test, once the exam setup is done.
- Identification: Don’t forget a valid photo ID to verify your identity. It is best that you keep a valid passport with you. It’s as crucial as your pencils or pens for those all-important scratch calculations.
- Login Details: Keep your College Board username and password at your fingertips. You’ll need these to to start the test without any further delay.
- Calculator: While Bluebook offers an integrated graphing calculator (DESMOS), bringing your own approved calculator for the Math section is advisable for familiarity and ease. The list of calculators approved by the collegeboard is available on its website.
By sticking to this concise checklist, you can avoid any last minute trouble because any mishap on the test day can directly impact your score. Plan well, Score high!!
