Cheating is widespread on the new SAT, according to the New York Times. Note that the SAT is taken only in person. Not at home.
I’m starting to lose track of the point I have been trying to make, but I want to stress that cheating is widespread on at-home tests and cheating is widespread on on-site tests. Don’t think that eliminating one format or the other will solve or even reduce your institution’s problems with cheating.
Says the Gray Lady:
“…worries are growing that the College Board’s security isn’t fail safe. Fueling the concerns are what appear to be copies of recently administered digital SAT questions that have been posted on the internet — on social media sites as well as websites primarily housed in China.”
