Design the Test

This week, we covered a story about the new SAT, the test you need to take to gain admission to college. The new SAT will debut in March with many differences from the current test. For example, the reading section will focus more on vocabulary that's useful for college or a career, and it will ask students to figure out the meanings of words in context. The math section will have more word problems than problems based on equations, and the essay will be optional. For this week's contest, we want you to design a test that you think would be the best college admissions assessment. What subjects would it test on? What format would it take — multiple choice questions, open-ended questions, an oral exam, a presentation, some combination of these or another form? How long would the test be? Send us a description of your test and if you'd like, an example question from it.

Note: Students, your teachers must submit for you. Any video submissions should be horizontal.
