2025 state SAT scores

And if everyone has that advantage, the problem is what?

A test like the SAT or ACT is supposed to spread out the test taking population over a broad range. A student who knows the answer to 32 out of 40 questions should be differentiated from a student who knows 30 questions and correctly guessed 2 out of the remaining 10.

It is the penalty for wrong answers that provides that discrimination.

PS - I have no idea how many questions are on the current test. The numbers are just for example.
