How Could SAT's Possibly Still Happen? Why does CB refuse to acknowledge reality?

The system as described – laptop w/camera, private room, excellent wifi – is not possible for all applicants, mostly low income applicants. That’s just reality.

If groups are literally unable to take the test, because of the above, or because whole states won’t offer the test, then it is patently unfair for a school to insist on test scores.

And the schools mostly have already recognized this. That’s why so many have already gone test optional for next year’s applicants.

Btw, the “six feet apart” rule does absolutely nothing in terms of the safety of being in an enclosed space for hours at a time. Ventilation is critical. Being outside would be much safer.
