How it works

One run a day. One skill at a time.

  1. 1

    Play the Daily.

    A quick run with three hearts. String right answers together and the questions get harder and the points multiply.

  2. 2

    Miss one, learn why.

    Every question is tagged by domain and skill, and every answer comes with an explanation.

  3. 3

    Drill that skill.

    Practice any single skill at any difficulty, or just the questions you got wrong.

  4. 4

    Beat your best.

    Come back tomorrow and climb. Progress shows your accuracy and your strongest skills.

Built around the real SAT blueprint.

Every question is tagged by section, domain, skill and difficulty, so you can practice exactly what you need. Full tests run like test day: two Reading & Writing modules, a break, then two Math modules.

Explanations

Every answer, explained.

Not just the right letter: how to get there, and why the tempting answer is wrong.

MathProblem-Solving and Data AnalysisHard

A store raises the price of a jacket by 20%. Later, it lowers the new price by 20%. The final price is what percent of the original price?

A80%
B96%Correct
C100%The trap
D104%

Check with $100: $100then$120then$96

  1. Turn each change into a multiplier.

    Up 20% means × 1.20. Down 20% means × 0.80.

  2. Apply them in order.

    1.20 × 0.80 = 0.96

  3. Read the answer.

    The final price is 96% of the original. That’s B.

  4. Why not 100%?

    The 20% cut is taken from the higher price, so it removes more than the 20% increase added.

Yes. In the standard full-length tests, Module 2 of each section is the harder version if you get 60% or more of Module 1 right, and the easier version if you don’t. Challenge tests use the hardest material throughout.

Official timing, extended 1.5× time, or untimed, on every test, including the free ones. Extended time allows 48 minutes for each Reading & Writing module and about 52 for each Math module. Untimed removes the clock so you can focus on accuracy.

A quick run with three hearts. Each right answer builds your streak: the questions get harder as it grows, and your points multiply (×2 from three in a row, ×3 from six). A miss costs a heart and drops you back to easy. Best is your longest streak.

Cross-Text Connections · Lesson 3

Partial agreement: same finding, different conclusion

Many Text 2 authors don't simply agree or disagree. They accept one part of Text 1 and push back on another. To see which, split Text 1 into its finding (what was observed or measured) and its conclusion (what the author says it means or why it happened).

Then ask which part Text 2 accepts. Three patterns are common. Same finding, different explanation: Text 2 agrees on what happened but gives another cause. Accepted, but limited: Text 2 agrees the claim holds in some places, groups or conditions, but not all. Questioned evidence: Text 2 doesn't call the conclusion false, but shows the evidence can't support it as strongly as Text 1 says, for example because the study ran too briefly to show a lasting effect.

The right answer matches what Text 2 accepts as well as what it disputes. It may state both halves or only the dispute, but it never contradicts the part Text 2 accepts. Wrong answers often miss in one of two directions: too strong (Text 2 rejects everything) or too weak (Text 2 agrees completely).

Worked example Medium

Text 1

In the city of Sendara, zoologist Kenji Mori watched crows place walnuts on a busy crosswalk, let passing cars crush them, and then fly down to collect the pieces. The crows collected the nuts almost only while the light was red and cars were stopped. Mori argues that the crows understand what the traffic signals mean.

Text 2

Biologist Leah Varga agrees that the crows' timing is impressive, but she doubts that they are reading the lights. A red light, she notes, is always followed by stopped cars and people stepping into the street. Crows, which are skilled at tracking movement, could simply be waiting for those signs that the road is safe.

Based on the texts, how would Varga (Text 2) most likely respond to Mori's argument in Text 1?

  1. By doubting that the crows really collect walnuts mainly while traffic is stopped.
  2. By agreeing that the crows understand the signals and adding that they recognize individual drivers.
  3. By accepting the crows' timing but suggesting they respond to stopped cars and people, not the lights.Answer
  4. By arguing that crows outside cities crack walnuts by dropping them onto rocks instead.

How to solve it

  1. Split Text 1. Finding: the crows collected the nuts almost only while the light was red. Conclusion: they understand what the traffic signals mean.
  2. Which part does Varga accept? The finding: she agrees that the crows' timing is impressive. Which part does she dispute? The conclusion: she doubts that they are reading the lights.
  3. Her alternative: a red light is always followed by stopped cars and people stepping into the street, and the crows could be watching for those.
  4. So the answer must keep the finding and replace the explanation. Only choice C does both.

Why each choice is right or wrong

  • A. Incorrect. This disputes the part Varga accepts. She agrees that the crows' timing is impressive; she questions only what the timing means.
  • B. Incorrect. Varga doubts that they are reading the lights, and neither text mentions drivers.
  • C. Correct. Varga accepts the timing but argues that the crows could simply be waiting for stopped cars and people stepping into the street, signs that always follow a red light.
  • D. Incorrect. Neither text discusses crows outside cities. This brings in outside knowledge and doesn't answer Mori's argument.

Worked example Hard

Text 1

In the Velmark region, the share of brides and grooms who signed the marriage register with their names, rather than with a mark, rose from 30 percent in 1650 to 55 percent in 1700. Historian Clara Brandt links this rise in literacy to the printing presses that opened in Velmark's towns, which flooded the region with cheap books.

Text 2

Historian Jonas Eklund accepts that literacy rose sharply in Velmark after 1650. But he notes that a 1652 law required every parish to fund a village school, and that signing rates climbed just as fast in remote villages with no bookseller for miles as in the towns where the presses were. Eklund credits the schools, not the presses, for the rise.

Based on the texts, how would Eklund (Text 2) most likely respond to Brandt's explanation in Text 1?

  1. By questioning whether signatures in marriage registers are a reliable way to measure literacy.
  2. By accepting the rise in literacy but crediting it to the village schools, not the presses.Answer
  3. By arguing that the books printed in Velmark's towns were too costly for most villagers to buy.
  4. By rejecting the claim that the share of people who could sign their names rose in Velmark.

How to solve it

  1. Text 1. Finding: signing rose from 30 percent to 55 percent. Conclusion: the printing presses and their cheap books caused the rise.
  2. Text 2 accepts that literacy rose sharply, so it keeps the finding. It disputes the cause with two facts: a 1652 law that funded village schools, and signing rates that climbed just as fast in remote villages with no bookseller for miles as in the towns.
  3. Predict: Eklund would say the schools, not the presses, explain the rise. Choice B matches.
  4. A is the tempting choice. Doubting signatures as a measure of literacy is a reasonable criticism in general, but Eklund never makes it, and he accepts the rise. C is tempting too, because it sounds like a reason the presses wouldn't matter, but Eklund says nothing about the price of books.

Why each choice is right or wrong

  • A. Incorrect. This is a sensible point in general, but Eklund never raises it. He accepts that literacy rose sharply, so he takes the signatures as a fair measure.
  • B. Correct. Eklund accepts the rise but points to the 1652 school law and to signing rates that climbed just as fast in remote villages with no bookseller for miles as in the towns with presses, evidence that weakens Brandt's explanation.
  • C. Incorrect. Eklund says nothing about what books cost. His argument rests on the school law and on where signing rates rose.
  • D. Incorrect. This contradicts Text 2. Eklund accepts that literacy rose sharply in Velmark after 1650.

Trap Too strong: rejecting what Text 2 only limits

A choice may have Text 2 rejecting Text 1 completely, or saying something has no effect, when Text 2 only limits or questions the claim. Watch for absolute words such as no, never, all and entirely, and check that Text 2 really goes that far.

Trap Disputing the part Text 2 accepts

When Text 2 accepts Text 1's observation (agrees that..., accepts that...), a choice that has Text 2 doubting that observation is wrong, however reasonable the doubt sounds. Find the exact part Text 2 pushes back on.

Full-length tests

Each test mirrors the digital SAT: 98 questions across four modules, 2 hr 14 min on official timing.

A little harder than the real SAT. These tests can run slightly tougher than test day, which makes them good practice: if you can handle these, the real one should feel easier. No question appears in more than one test, Challenge Tests included.

Challenge Tests Hardest of the hardest

Same 98-question format, but every question is drawn from the toughest SAT material: Challenging-tier math throughout and the hardest reading.
