A Guide to Planning Your Test Dates
When should I take the SAT Subject Tests?
Most students take the SAT Subject Tests in their final year of high school. As the Subject Tests correspond with high school coursework in those subjects, this means students do not have to spend a lot of extra time studying for the SAT Subject Tests.
You CANNOT take the SAT and the SAT Subject Tests on the same day, so it is worth planning your test dates at least a year ahead. Here are the upcoming SAT and SAT Subject Test dates for 2020:
| Test Date | SAT | SAT Subject Tests |
|---|---|---|
| August 29, 2020 | Yes | Yes |
| September 26, 2020 | Yes | No |
| October 3, 2020 | Yes | Yes |
| November 7, 2020 | No | Yes |
| December 5, 2020 | Yes | Yes |

When should I register for my tests?
The deadline to register for the SAT or SAT Subject Tests is usually stated as being a month before the actual test. However, we strongly recommend that you sign up for the test as soon as you know you are going to take it. This is because the spots usually run out even before the deadline. To avoid disappointment, please register in advance.
