Digital SAT Reading and Writing Tips

Starting in 2024, the SAT will be digital. This version of the SAT will include some question types that were not previously included on the paper PSAT or SAT and the reading and writing questions will now be in the same module (rather than two separate sections.)

This class, designed for high school aged students (grades 9-12) preparing for the digital SAT, will focus on reading skills. We will not cover grammar/language skills. (If you're interested in SAT grammar skills, please reach out to me, as I have other classes that cover these topics.)


Please note that while the ACT is a similar test and some of the skills overlap, many of the questions covered in this class will be SAT specific, and thus would not be a good fit for a student that is only preparing for the ACT. (If you're interested in ACT prep, please reach out to me, as one of my other classes would likely be a better fit.)


Topics Covered
1. Word Choice
2. Function of a sentence in the text
3. Poems
4. Supporting claims
5. Integrating data from a table
6. Supporting and weaking claims
7. Notes

During the class, students will learn test-taking strategies and respond to practice questions in the chat. Students are welcome to unmute to ask questions.

Students will be provided with a tip sheet to remind them of the skills covered in the class.
