It’ll have all kinds of question types mixed together within the three sections. Learn it, practice it…why the third step? Well, first of all, the official SAT won’t have an “algebra” problem set or a “geometry” problem set. Practice questions are great for making sure you’ve mastered (and continue to remember) the lesson content. To maximize your score on the SAT, you’ll need three things:Īnd despite what a lot of students believe, those last two aren’t interchangeable! Lessons are super valuable for reviewing content that you might not have seen for a while-or ever.

Why do I need to take a full-length practice test?

Magoosh Prep: you can choose between a live cohorted class with an instructor (which includes all our lessons and practice questions) or access to the self-study option by itself.

There are a few great books out there and a few to avoid-you can check them out in Magoosh’s post on the best SAT books and our review of the Princeton Review’s practice tests!. Yes, the College Board’s book is awesome, but guess what? Those eight tests are the same eight tests you can find on their website, just printed and bound (they’re transparent about this).

Prep books: But beware! While prep books can be great for lessons, they tend to be better for learning than for full-length practice tests.

After you’ve taken an exam or two, you can then sharpen your skills with practice in different areas with resources on Khan Academy’s site and elsewhere. There are four full exams on the Khan Academy site, which can also be found on the College Board site.

Khan Academy: Khan Academy has paired up with the College Board (they’re the test creators) to offer free online practice SAT tests.

There are a few great places to look for full-length SAT practice tests! Here are our top recommendations:
