The Digital SAT Reading and Writing section features passages ranging from 25 to 150 words, assessing your student’s reading comprehension and writing skills. Topics include punctuation, grammatical agreement, and the effective use of transition words. Each module challenges students to synthesize key points into concise sentences, summarize the main ideas and purposes of passages, and choose the most suitable words for sentence completion.

The ACT Math section contains more problems involving Trigonometry, Geometry, and Algebra 2 concepts, whereas The SAT Math section prioritizes linear equations, quadratic equations, and basic algebra.
If the qualities listed below describe your student, then they may have an advantage on the SAT:
Tech-Savvy
Students comfortable using computers and digital tools may find the digital format easier to navigate, especially with features like highlighting and built-in calculators.
Adaptability
The digital SAT’s adaptive testing format adjusts the difficulty of questions of the second module according to successful input on the first module, so students who can think on their feet and adjust their strategies may excel.
Strong Test-Taking Skills
Students who are good at managing their time and stress in a digital environment often perform better, as the test can feel different from traditional formats.
Competent Reading Comprehension Skills
Since the digital SAT focuses on reading and analysis, students who are strong readers and can quickly comprehend and analyze text may do well.
Problem-Solving Skills
The math sections often demand more than just computation; they involve applying concepts to real-world scenarios. Students who are skilled at applying math in context may find success.
Familiarity with Digital Resources
Students who have practiced with digital tools and test formats are likely to feel more at ease during the actual exam.

3 Secrets About The SAT/ACT
01
The SAT and ACT tests DON’T test intelligence or even how good of a student you are. They test how good you are at taking the SAT and ACT tests.
02
You actually may not have learned all the material on the SAT and ACT in school. Specialized preparation is the best way to ensure you master all the concepts.
03
There are no “secret hacks” to getting a high score. The only strategy that really works is taking time to understand and correct your mistakes.

Test Requirements & Admissions
Be sure to verify the standardized test requirement status of the schools your student is applying to! GPA, extracurricular activities, personal essays, and letters of recommendation are key factors universities consider when assessing your student’s fit for their campus. Strong test scores can further enhance your student’s competitiveness, even if not required by the university.
Attention: Be mindful of some universities that have become test-optional while still offering scholarships that mandate SAT or ACT scores.
