Classical Academy High School students placed among the top five high schools in the county that scored an average of 58% higher in reading and math on SAT Tests. This is nearly 10 percentage points higher than the state average. The College Board categorizes these students as “college and career ready.”Beginning in March 2016, The College Board redesigned the SAT to make the test more relevant to what students learn in school and to better align with what colleges and universities want them to know. The new test has two sections and is based on a total score of 1600. The previous test had three sections and was based on a total score of 2400. The new test also has a new format and an updated scale. The penalty for guessing on answers was also eliminated.To view the entire article visit:https://www.kpbs.org/news/2018/aug/07/whats-behind-new-sat-scores-san-diego-county/
