What changed from the Paper version of the SAT to the Digital SAT?

The topics and content of the SAT exam did not change. However, the questions and their structure have changed. Most sections now ask fewer questions and take less time.

In the paper SAT, there were 500+ words long passages asking ~10 questions for each passage. In the Digital SAT, passages are around 100 words and they ask only one question per passage.

The Digital SAT is "module adaptive," meaning that how you perform on the first module determines the difficulty of the 2nd module. For example, if you do well in Reading and Writing Module 1, you'll see harder questions in Reading and Writing Module 2.

In the paper SAT, Reading and Writing used to be separate sections. In the Digital SAT, they are now combined.

The paper SAT had a "no calculator" math section. In the Digital SAT, a calculator can be used on any math question.
