The covid-19 pandemic brought changes in the state tests carried out by Icfes, among them the Saber Pro tests, formerly known as Ecaes, which must be presented by students in the last semesters of universities.
In recent days, confusion has been reported regarding the date of this exam, since many students report having been notified by their respective universities that the tests would take place on the second holiday weekend of November. But nevertheless, these are not the official dates.

EL TIEMPO consulted with Icfes about the dates, and the entity indicated that these will be carried out specifically between November 28 and December 6.
On this occasion, the exam will be carried out electronically using the same software used previously for the Saber TyT tests. This in order to minimize the risk of contagion.

This was established in the schedule established by Resolution 407, issued by the entity in early September as a result of the current health emergency.
The reason for the confusion in the dates is due to the fact that on November 14 and 15, under the same modality, the second Saber T&T Tests of the year will be carried out, which are not intended for university careers but for technical and technological programs .
In a previous resolution of July it had been said that both tests would be carried out that same weekend. However, this schedule changed, so now the old Ecaes will take place on the aforementioned dates between December 28 and 6.
