Passage
The Amazon rainforest, often referred to as the "lungs of the Earth," produces roughly 20% of the world's oxygen through photosynthesis. Spanning nine countries in South America and covering approximately 5.5 million square kilometers, the Amazon holds around 10% of all species on Earth, making it the most biodiverse ecosystem on the planet. Despite its critical importance, the Amazon faces mounting threats from deforestation driven primarily by agricultural expansion and illegal logging.

Which of the following best states the central idea of the passage?

Passage
Marie Curie was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize and remains the only person to have won Nobel Prizes in two different sciences — Physics (1903) and Chemistry (1911). Born in Warsaw, Poland, she overcame significant gender-based barriers to pursue her scientific education, eventually moving to Paris to study at the Sorbonne. Her discovery of the elements polonium and radium revolutionized the understanding of atomic structure and laid the groundwork for modern nuclear science.

What is the main purpose of this passage?

4Easy

Solve for x: 2x - 4 = 10

Passage
Urban green spaces — parks, community gardens, and tree-lined streets — provide more than aesthetic value. Research consistently shows that access to nature in cities reduces stress hormones, lowers blood pressure, and improves mental health outcomes. Children who have regular access to parks demonstrate higher levels of attention and creativity. Despite these benefits, lower-income urban neighborhoods often have significantly fewer green spaces than wealthier ones, creating what researchers call a "green gap."

Which choice best identifies the central idea of the passage?

6Easy

What is the value of x if 5x = 45?

Passage
In 1969, the Apollo 11 mission successfully landed humans on the Moon for the first time in history. Astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin spent approximately two and a half hours on the lunar surface, collecting rock samples and conducting experiments, while Michael Collins orbited above in the command module. The mission fulfilled President Kennedy's 1961 challenge to land a man on the Moon before the end of the decade and marked a defining moment in the Space Race between the United States and the Soviet Union.

What is the main idea of this passage?

8Easy

Solve for x: x + 13 = 28

Passage
Microplastics — particles smaller than five millimeters — have been found in the world's most remote locations, from the deepest ocean trenches to Arctic ice cores. These particles originate from the breakdown of larger plastic items, from synthetic clothing fibers shed during washing, and from industrial processes. Scientists are increasingly concerned because microplastics have been detected in drinking water, seafood, and even human blood, raising questions about their long-term health effects that researchers are only beginning to understand.

Which statement best expresses the main idea of the passage?

10Easy

Solve for y: 4y + 2 = 18

How the real Digital SAT differs

Reading and Writing has 54 questions in 64 minutes, while Math has 44 questions in 70 minutes. Each section has two modules, and performance in the first module influences the second.

Review every explanation, note whether the miss came from content, timing, or execution, then work a small set of similar questions before testing again. One focused feedback loop is more useful than chasing a score from ten items.
