PEN Myths and Facts #1: Easier vs. Harder Test Dates

This is a common SAT urban legend. Tests from month to month ARE NOT easier or harder. ETS runs every test through a very rigorous screening process so as to prevent any inconsistencies in test difficulty. Just think about it, if there were differences in the tests month to month, the SAT would have no validity as a standardized test whatsoever. So, if you are bemoaning the passing of the December test date (which many think is the easiest of the year), don't fret. They are ALL THE SAME! Stay tuned for our next Myth and Fact.
