New SAT Tests Reading, Writing, StaminaStudents across the nation took part this weekend in the first administration of the SAT in its new, reading- and writing-intensive format. The general consensus seems to be that the exam, which now opens with a 25-minute essay section and features a new critical reading section, is too long. "After a while you just stop caring and want it to be over," reported Sheryl Nagy, a junior at Burbank (California) High School, in an Associated Press article. "They added a lot of reading comprehension, and it was just hard to keep reading and reading and reading." The revamped, four-hour exam consists of three sections--writing, critical reading, and math--and a perfect score of 2400.
