Welcome. Today you’re taking the SAT and helping us test new technology.

Please listen carefully. If you haven’t checked in to the Bluebook testing app yet, wait until I finish reading this
introduction and give you the start code.
If you’d like to follow along as I read these instructions, click Help and then Verbal Instructions.
You agreed to follow the rules and keep test content confidential.
I will dismiss anyone who tries to break the rules, and their scores will be canceled. They may also be prevented from
taking College Board tests in the future.
Bluebook should be the only application open on your device unless you’re using approved assistive technology.
Close all other applications now. You might need to exit Bluebook first and reopen it when you finish.
Does anyone need to close other applications?
DON’T READ ALOUD
Pause until all students have closed other applications.

You’ll receive official scores that you can use to apply to college. If you want to cancel your scores, you have one
week from today to complete the form available at sat.org.

The test has 2 sections, with a break in between.

Bluebook times everyone individually, and it will tell you when it’s time to take your break. Don’t wait for me to
dismiss you. Leave your device open.

To take a break at any other time, go to the More menu and click Unscheduled Break. You will lose testing time if
you take an unscheduled break.

If you have an approved accommodation for breaks as needed, select Pause instead so you don’t lose testing time.

I’ll come around now to collect prohibited devices and make sure you followed the Bluebook instructions for clearing
your desk.

If you have phones, smartwatches, or other devices, turn them off before I collect them.

And if you brought a calculator, I’ll make sure it’s acceptable.

You should have 3 sheets of scratch paper, which I’ll collect after the test. Write your full name at the top right
corner of each sheet. If you don’t have 3 sheets, let me know when I come by your desk.

Check each desk and collect devices.

Device Collection
Place the student’s phone and other prohibited devices in the bag or envelope labeled with the student’s name.

Please give me your attention again.

It’s important to be quiet even when you’re not testing because you might start your break and finish your test at
slightly different times than your neighbors.

If you need help at any time, raise your hand and I’ll come over.

Does anyone have a question?

Pause to answer questions.

I’ll give you a start code in a moment. When you enter the code and click Start Test, your timer will start and you can
begin testing.

If you don’t see the start code screen yet, finish checking in to Bluebook.

I’ll read the start code now and write it on the board. Good luck!
