One change they seem to be making is to make the vocab easier. So if that isn’t a strength for you, you may do better on the new SAT.

Personally, I am rather annoyed about the changes, because they seem to be aimed also at aligning the test to test common core objectives. But my 8th grade hasn’t been educated with the common core so it makes no sense for her. The new SAT is also apparently going to be more like the ACT, but since students already have the option of taking the ACT, I see no reason to duplicate. I think it’s mostly a marketing ploy to convince states who invested heavily on common core to push the SAT on their students instead of the ACT. And don’t worry about the kids who didn’t learn common core. All about market share and $$$.
