Introduction to the New SAT

Although colleges are avoiding putting too much emphasis on scores and adopting a holistic methodology for the selection of prospective students, high scores in SAT are still valued by admission committee today, especially at competitive colleges.

The most prominent survey, US NEWS, makes SAT score a huge category for ranking the schools. Today, almost every competitive 4-year college awards scholarships to entice academic talent, and their assessment of “talent” is the SAT / ACT score.

In 2016, a redesigned version of SAT was firstly launched in the spring, and the new SAT has introduced many major changes.

--The SAT is now scored out of 1600.
--The Reading and Writing sections on the old SAT have been combined into a single section in the new SAT, with a maximum score of 800.
--The Math section is still scored out of 800.
--Instead of five answer choices for each question, there will be only four.

The SAT is generally a challenging test. The SAT reading requires students’ extensive knowledge of words and in-depth comprehension of the reading passages, which most non-native English speaking students find extremely hard. For these students, building up a decent vocabulary is the most crucial part in test preparation.

The Math section in SAT general test is relatively easy for students with the Eastern Asian educational background. However, most STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) faculties in competitive colleges require SAT Subject Test on math, physics, and other subjects, which covers a much wider area.

Eminence (Mingde) College Summer SAT Intensive Class starts in July. Taught by Dr. Stanley Markotich, a professor at SFU. Dr. Markotich is a senior instructor at Eminence (Mingde) College, specialized in SAT training and US college application and planning.

Originally from Vancouver and a student at Simon Fraser University, Dr. Markotich graduated from Indiana University in the early 1990s and promptly accepted an appointment with Radio Free Europe in Munich where he served as Serbian analyst until the organization's move to Prague. Markotich spent several years in the Czech Republic as a research analyst with the Open Media Research Institute before taking a contract with the International Crisis Group and relocating to a permanent base in the Balkans.
