Nine admissions tests, and nothing here a testing body did not publish.

Format, timing, scoring and dates for the nine tests below — 106 statements in all, each quoted beside the value with a link to the page it was read from. Where a body publishes no calendar, or a calendar has run out, the page says so instead of inventing one.

Not every test has a date to count down to

Three with sittings, two with windows, one run out, three by appointment.

Sittings still ahead — the SAT, ACT and LSAT: a national date, a registration deadline and usually a late one, all counted down here.
A school-run window — the PSAT/NMSQT and AP Exams: taken in school, inside a window the body publishes; the school picks the day and handles the registration.
A calendar that has run out — the MCAT: every sitting in this file has passed, and the page names when the next registration opens rather than calling it “by appointment”.
By appointment, year round — the GRE, GMAT and TOEFL iBT: there is no national date, so the deadline that governs you is the programme you are applying to.

Method

Where every figure comes from.

The sources

106 statements about 9 tests, each read off the testing body’s own page or PDF and quoted beside the value: College Board, ACT, Law School Admission Council, ETS, Graduate Management Admission Council and Association of American Medical Colleges — 38 official pages in all. The format statements were read on 8 September 2026 (the SAT’s added ones on 9 and 28 September 2026); the calendars were re-read on 28 September 2026. SAT score ranges for 700 colleges are the U.S. Department of Education’s College Scorecard, public-domain federal data, fetched 8 September 2026: 700 of the 1,037 schools that report an SAT average, complete down to an average of 1,102.

Fetched and computed

Nothing is fetched from a testing body when a page loads: the readings are two files on labs.llc, tests.json and colleges.json. What is computed, on labs.llc, at the moment you load the page: every countdown and registration state (in the body’s own time zone — Eastern, Central for the ACT), the study plan, the finder’s gauges and the arithmetic in the SAT page’s dealt openings.

The limits

These are readings, not a live feed: confirm a deadline on the body’s own site before you rely on it. Calendars end — SAT 5 Jun 2027, ACT 10 Jul 2027 and LSAT 12 Jun 2027 in these files, and the MCAT’s has already run out, which its page says. GMAC’s mba.com and the AAMC’s calendar sit behind browser checks this site will not try to get past; where that cost a reading, the page says so. The Scorecard figures are the latest cohort the Department had published, which trails the current admissions year.

What you type

The test, date, score or state you put into a form here travels only as the address of the next page on labs.llc (?t=, ?d=, ?s=, ?st=). Nothing is stored. The site’s analytics records page views, and that address is part of the view it records. No account, no cookie of this page’s own; the edition switch keeps one word, paper or dark.
