  The company that administers one of the two most widely-used U.S. college admissions tests recently announced its first major revisions to its test since 2005. The College Boards changes to the SAT exam drop infrequently used vocabulary words and the mandatory essay, and add passages referencing U.S. historical documents.

  When Howard University students from Nigeria and Jamaica were applying to college, they were among the approximately 100,000 foreign students each year who took the SAT.

  They have mixed emotions on whether the newly-announced changes will help or hurt international students interested in U.S. schools.

  First of all, they are dropping the vocabulary words, which is, I think, the biggest challenge for most international students, said Howard University student Peace Umoru.

  But Shanique Campbell, also a Jamaican student at Howard, has concerns about adding questions about U.S. historical documents.

  That I believe will be very scary for international students, said Campell. We are already faced with knowing that we are taking an American-based exam, and so there are a lot of things that we are not prepared for in terms of what to expect on that exam[for example], cultural references that we will not be able to identify with.
