Full-length tests

The real test, rehearsed.

98 questions across four modules, in the digital SAT’s order and on its timing, with a highlighter, a question map and a timer you can see.

A Peakscor full-length test in progress: Reading and Writing, Test A, Module 1 of 4, question 7 of 27, with the passage, four answer choices, a highlighter, a 24:18 timer and Flag, Back and Next buttons.

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.

98 questions across four modules, in the digital SAT’s order: Reading & Writing Module 1 and Module 2 (27 questions each), a 10-minute break, then Math Module 1 and Module 2 (22 questions each). On official timing that’s 2 hr 14 min of testing. You get estimated section scores and a total at the end.

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.

Transitions · Lesson 2

Close calls: concession, sequence and restatement

Hard Transitions questions put two families side by side that sound alike. Naming the relationship precisely is how you separate them.

Concession (Granted,, Admittedly,, To be sure,): the writer admits a point that seems to cut against the main claim, then returns to the claim. Often the same sentence finishes with but: Granted, the panels are expensive, but they pay for themselves. That whole sentence supports the claim before it, so a plain contrast word such as However, is wrong there. After a concession, the return to the main claim usually takes a word such as Still,, Even so, or Nevertheless,.

Sequence (Next,, Then,, Later,, Afterward,): one event or step comes after another in time. Cause (As a result,, Therefore,) is stronger: the first event makes the second happen, or, with Therefore,, the first supports the second as a conclusion. Steps in a process and events years apart usually follow each other without one causing the other. Ask: did the first make the second happen, or did it only come first?

Restatement (In other words,, That is,) says the same idea again, often in plainer words. Example (For example,, For instance,) gives one specific case of the idea. The test: if the new sentence could replace the old one and say the same thing, it is a restatement. If it names one particular person, species, place or event that fits the idea, it is an example.

Worked example Medium

To make traditional Japanese washi paper, artisans first strip the inner bark from branches of the kozo shrub and soak it in water. They then boil the bark until its fibers soften and pick out any remaining specks and knots by hand. they beat the softened fibers by hand into a pulp, which is mixed with water and scooped onto a fine screen to form sheets.

Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?

  1. As a result,
  2. In other words,
  3. However,
  4. Next,Answer

How to solve it

  1. Cover the choices. The passage lists steps in a process: strip and soak, boil, then clean.
  2. The sentence with the blank gives the following step: beat the fibers into pulp. The plain word is then.
  3. As a result, is tempting because the boiling softens the fibers first. But boiling does not make the artisans beat the fibers. Beating is simply the next step, so the answer is Next,.

Why each choice is right or wrong

  • A. Incorrect. Boiling makes the fibers soft, but it doesn't cause the artisans to beat them. Beating is the next step the artisans choose to take, not an effect of boiling.
  • B. Incorrect. Beating the fibers into pulp is a new step, not a rewording of the steps before it.
  • C. Incorrect. Nothing in the new step goes against the steps before it. The process simply continues.
  • D. Correct. The passage describes the steps of papermaking in order, and beating the fibers into pulp is the step that follows boiling and cleaning.

Worked example Hard

Many city planners see rooftop farms as a promising way to bring fresh vegetables to crowded neighborhoods. rooftop farms can grow only a small share of the food a city needs, but they shorten the distance produce travels to reach shoppers and give residents a place to learn how crops are grown.

Which choice completes the text with the most logical transition?

  1. Granted,Answer
  2. However,
  3. For instance,
  4. Therefore,

How to solve it

  1. Cover the choices. The first sentence makes a claim: rooftop farms are promising.
  2. Read the whole sentence with the blank, not just its first half. It admits a limit (only a small share), then turns with but to benefits that support the claim.
  3. A sentence that admits a weakness and then returns to the claim is a concession. However, is the trap: it would signal that the sentence goes against the claim, but the sentence ends up supporting it. The answer is Granted,.

Why each choice is right or wrong

  • A. Correct. The sentence concedes a limit of rooftop farms, then uses but to return to their benefits. Granted introduces that admitted weakness.
  • B. Incorrect. However would signal that the sentence opposes the claim that rooftop farms are promising. The sentence as a whole supports that claim, and its own but already handles the turn.
  • C. Incorrect. A small share of the city's food is a limitation, not a specific case of rooftop farms being promising.
  • D. Incorrect. The farms' limited output does not follow as a conclusion from planners' view that the farms are promising.
