THE SHORTEST SAT TEST—16 QUESTIONS TO APPROXIMATE YOUR SAT SCORE AND THE EXACT STRATEGIES YOU NEED TO IMPROVE

This specially designed quiz is tailored to you---your answers will be analyzed and used to show you exactly what to study so you get the question right every time.

There are a few different ways to take the test:

1.  If you already took the test in the book, grid your answers Here to see your approximated SAT score. * To see what you did wrong, explanations for each answer, the strategies and basic skills needed to improve your score, click Here.

2.  If you want to take the test online click Here to start.  * When you take the test online, you will see what you did wrong, explanations for each answer, the strategies and basic skills needed to improve your score. 

If you want to take the quiz online and see your score without first seeing explanatory answers to the questions, just skip the explanatory answer and go on to the next question. After you see your score, you can see the explanatory answers to the questions by filling in your answers to the questions again. 

Although it shouldn’t take you more than 40 seconds to answer each verbal (Critical Reading) and writing question and 1 minute to answer each math question, you may take this test untimed and still get a fairly accurate prediction.

Note: The PSAT score is approximately calculated by dividing the SAT score by 10 and is used for National Merit Scholarships.

The top schools require SAT scores in the 1800 range. Following is a test that can determine if you have the goods—and it won’t take you more than 15 minutes.
