Reading and Writing covers four areas: Craft and Structure (about 28% of the questions), Information and Ideas (26%), Standard English Conventions (26%) and Expression of Ideas (20%). Math covers Algebra (35%), Advanced Math (35%), Problem-Solving and Data Analysis (15%) and Geometry and Trigonometry (15%); about a quarter of math questions ask you to type your own answer instead of choosing one. (Source: the College Board's test specifications.)

The adaptive part

Module 1 of each section has a broad mix of easy, medium and hard questions. How you do on it decides module 2: a harder one or an easier one. Your score comes from both modules together, and right answers on the harder module count for more. The easier route limits how high you can score: the College Board's technical manual reports that a student routed to the easier Math module who then gets every question right earns at most about 580.

What a practice test here includes

Short on time? Take one module

You can take a single module: module 1 only, or a module 2 on its own. Taken alone, the harder module 2 gives a quick section score with module 1 counted as all correct. See harder Math module 2 practice.

Before your first test

The first time you open the site, it downloads the question bank from the College Board in the background, which takes about 20 minutes. You can practice right away; tests unlock once a section's questions are all on your device.
