SAT and ACT test postponed

[AMac]

Why couldn't test go forward but using cubicles and less students per session? They are postponing test until September now. I'm sure there is a better way to get these test open to the students and be safe at the same time.

It is frustrating but everyone your age is having the same standardized testing adversity right now. (Including my little brother who hopes to join the class of 25). Use this time at home to your advantage and hit the books. Make sure you are prepared to score well come September. You got this!

I am sure that we could brainstorm a lot of solutions that we might percieve to be "safe" and practical on a case by case basis, but the problem that the Testing Company's face is more complicated than that. They need to be able to present a program that is safe and consistent for everyone. Businesses around the country (and the globe) are evaluating risks and redesigning how they do business , and I am sure that ACT/SAT is doing the same.

No doubt its a tough problem, but since schools are a primary test location and entire schools are empty, it seems they could use a school with appropriate distancing. Its not like the whole school takes the SAT. At most its half. They can also limit the number of attendees. But thats just me spitballing.
