Not on your cable system? Board sponsors the exam. Other possible changes under discussion include more problem-solving questions in the math section, and increased emphasis on critical reading in the verbal section. Such changes, if approved, probably would not take effect before 1993, according to previous statements from the Educational Testing Service, the Princeton, N.J.-based organization that administers the SAT. A brief statement issued by the board following its meeting said trustees view proposals to revamp the SAT as "positive and exciting. Spokeswoman Janice Gams said College Board president Donald M.

Stewart and other board offi- cials would not elaborate beyond the statement until a final deci sion was announced. Warren Day, a spokesman for ETS in Princeton, also declined to comment on the deliberations and referred all questions to the College Board. However, the documents obtained from FairTest suggest that one factor contributing to the delay was strong objections from several educators and state legislators who fear that the addition of a writing section would be unfair to minority students and recent immigrants.

NEW YORK (AP) Trustees of the College Board voted Friday to postpone a decision on whether to adopt changes in the Scholastic Aptitude Test, including possible addition of a written section. Board officials refused to com-' ment on the precise nature of the changes. But documents suggest that a key change might be the addition for the first time of a written essay section a change some fear could work against minority and immigrant groups. The docu-' ments were made available by 1 FairTest, a Cambridge, based group critical of the SAT. The SAT, taken by about a mil-' lion college bound students annually, consists of two multiple choice sections, testing verbal and mathematical skills.
