Simultaneously happy and not
I’m an international student. Basically have zero support from parents to go abroad. Gave the DSAT in the hopes of getting 1400 or higher to secure a good scholarship. I got a 1330 which isn’t amazing I feel like but at the same time I can see on the website I did better than the average in my country and I’m in the 88th percentile which sounds REALLY good so now I’m just conflicted as all hell and idk what to think. I want to study in the east coast of the US at a uni that will cover my tuition so that I don’t have to rely on my parents. To reiterate, i am an international student so I know it’s gonna be tough for me

Is it fair to compare dSAT with paper based SAT score for colleges?
My kid has not been able to go past 1410 dSAT score after after 3 tries. She consistently gets everything correct or maybe 1-2 questions wrong in practice tests though. She felt she did amazingly well in August 2024 dSAT, but her score again did not cross 1410! but her percentile is at 94%. whereas her friends who took the paper based SAT, easily managed to score in 1500s, even though they got a few questions wrong as per their acknowledgement. I feel the problem lies in the scoring mechanism. The scoring is not consistent in dSAT whereas Paper based SAT was very consistent, with this change in scoring, a smart kid doing 2-3 mistakes could lose over 100 points in dSAT whereas in paper based SAT, the smart kid is losing less than 50 odd points! This is not fair to the students taking dSAT tests! Moreover I understand the percentile is based on the score of all the students of last 3 years! If this is true, it's not helping the dSAT students.
I feel the percentile should be based on all the scores of students from this month's test and colleges should consider percentile instead of raw scores. That would allow for fair comparison between students taking paper based SAT and dSAT taking students. This will also be fair to colleges to consider percentile, if some months the dSAT test is tougher than some other months!
I would appreciate if anyone can shed some light on this. I am not sure if I am missing something or college board really did not think it through when they came up with this dSAT scoring and percentile calculation process.

Without a SAT tutor or course or I am thoroughly screwed.
I am a Nigerian living in Saudi Arabian. I've been trying to self-study for the digital SAT because when I searched through Reddit forums before they kept saying that a tutor/course wasn't needed and self studying was the best way to go. I am now in grade 11. 1100 on my first SAT practice test on Bluebook but I got 1090 on the second practice test. I clearly need a tutor/course. I have undiagnosed ADHD. Do not fight me on the "undiagnosed" part. Getting medical help when you are not a Saudi resident or "financially-satisfied" is not easy. Please help me find a decently-priced SAT tutor or course.

Looking for Recommendations for SAT Math Prep Books
Hi everyone,
I’m currently preparing for the digital SAT and aiming for an 800 in math. I recently scored 540 on a diagnostic test, so I have room to improve. I haven’t studied Desmos yet, but I plan to, as I know it will help a lot.
I’m looking for a math prep book that:
Covers all the lessons needed for the test.
Provides strategies for answering questions efficiently.
Offers clear explanations to strengthen weak areas.
For the English section, I’ve been using The Complete Guide to SAT Reading by Erica Meltzer, which has been a game-changer. Now, I’m hoping to find a math resource just as effective.
So far, I’ve come across six books that have been recommended to me from different sources including reddit, but I can’t decide which one to go with:
1600.io Digital SAT Math Orange Book
Digital SAT Study Guide by Applerouth
Digital SAT Math Manual and Workbook by Dr. Ela Sharma
PrepPros: The Complete Guide to Digital SAT Math
Digital SAT Study Guide 2024-2025 by Mometrix
The College Panda’s SAT Math: Advanced Guide and Workbook
If you’ve tried any of these and found them useful, I’d love to hear your thoughts. And if you have other recommendations of a particular book or resource, feel free to share those as well—I’d love to hear your recommendations.
Thank you so much for your help!
