Current formats (2026 — verify before quoting):
| Exam | Shape | What it changes for strategy |
|---|---|---|
| Digital SAT | Bluebook app; Reading & Writing 54 q / 64 min and Math 44 q / 70 min, each in two modules; ~2h14m; 400-1600; Desmos built in | Module 2 difficulty depends on module 1, so module-1 accuracy sets the ceiling; no wrong-answer penalty |
| ACT (enhanced, 2025+) | English 50 q / 35 min, Math 45 q / 50 min, Reading 36 q / 40 min; Science and Writing optional; Composite = English, Math, Reading | Tight English pacing; take Science only if a target program wants the score; no wrong-answer penalty |
| GRE General | ~1h58m: one Issue essay (30 min), Verbal 12 + 15 q, Quant 12 + 15 q; section-level adaptive; 130-170 per measure | Second section's difficulty depends on the first; answers can be revisited within a section |
| GMAT Focus Edition | 2h15m, 64 q: Quant 21, Verbal 23, Data Insights 20, 45 min each; 205-805; choose section order; bookmark and edit up to 3 answers per section | Unfinished sections are penalized hard — budget to finish; calculator only in Data Insights; no geometry, no sentence correction |
| TOEFL iBT (since Jan 2026) | Reading and Listening multistage adaptive; scores on a 1-6 band scale aligned to CEFR, with the 0-120 scale also reported during the transition | Targets now come as bands; check each institution's required band |
A large gap between timed and untimed scores is a pacing problem, not a content gap — fix the right one.
