Last month, the College Board, which administers the widely-used college admission Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT), and the Khan Academy, whose mission is to provide a “free world-class education for anyone anywhere,” agreed to a partnership in which the Khan Academy will cooperate with the College Board to provide free, online SAT prep software. There are many SAT prep courses, books, camps, and tutors but none is cooperating directly with the College Board. The Khan Academy, with ten million users visiting its web site every month, is at the leading edge of digital education. The Khan-SAT partnership will allow for self-paced learning and will level the playing field by providing access to those who are unable to afford proprietary preparation courses.
