In our area, March SAT tests were cancelled the day before at some locations, continued to not happen during the rest of the cycle, and were cancelled at many of the same locations for the August test.

I do think that testing did happen at some schools in the area (since they were not on the cancelled list), and that those schools are considered highly-ranked ones. The thing is, requesting that school doesn’t necessarily get you assigned to that school, so the cancelled tests have kept happening, depending on where a student has been assigned.

What will happen with the PSATs in October?
