When weekend testing resumed in August 2020, many local test centers closed or reduced capacity due to covid-related health and safety measures. In response to the pandemic, College Board paused testing in March, May, and June of 2020, impacting the ability of the class of 2021 to test. Students who took the SAT through SAT School Day represented a larger portion of the testing population when compared to previous years. Despite the decline in participation due to school and test center closures, proportional representation across student subgroups was roughly similar to previous classes due in large part to SAT School Day. Many students attempted to take the SAT but were unfortunately unable to due to widespread covid-related disruptions, with more than one million test registrations cancelled as schools and test centers had to close or reduce capacity. The 2021 SAT Suite of Assessments Program Results shows that 1.5 million students in the high school class of 2021 took the SAT at least once, down from 2.2 million in the class of 2020. Though Fewer Opportunities for Students to Test During Pandemic, 1.5 Million Students Took the SAT
