Confusion over New SAT Policy

There has been some recent confusion among students and teachers over the new SAT guessing policy.  I have emailed the College Board and their response is as follows:  For the 2011 AP tests, there will be no penalty for guessing on the Multiple Choice questions. You will not lose credit for wrong answers. This new policy will NOT be in force for the SAT Reasoning Tests which most students take for college admissions.  The penalty for guessing on the SAT has not changed and students still need to try guess only when two or more choices can be eliminated.
