Digital SAT · Reading & Writing

A course that proves its own results.

Twenty-five 60-minute sessions built around one through-line: you take a real diagnostic on day one, sharpen one domain at a time across four phases, then re-take a parallel form at the end — so you see exactly how far you moved, domain by domain. Each session is backed by a daily home-practice set (~45 min). The target is 600–800 R&W, reached by securing the harder, higher-ceiling Module 2.

The hook isn't a pitch

It's your own data.

Most students think the SAT English section tests how many big words they know. It doesn't — it tests whether you can do five or six specific, learnable things. The diagnostic ends with your own number: a score out of 20, a breakdown by domain, and an estimated R&W range.

"You're at 12/20, your weakest domain is Standard English Conventions — and this course has three sessions targeting exactly that."

When the gap is that concrete, the value is self-evident. Every weak domain you see today maps to a specific session built to close it. The diagnostic does the explaining.

Illustrative — your real card is generated live in the diagnostic.

Four domains, one method each

The whole test is five or six moves.

Read the question, predict before you peek, eliminate the trap. The SAT's wrong answers are designed — naming the trap is half the skill. Here's the map you'll meet on day one.

Craft & Structure
Words in context · text structure & purpose · cross-text connections
Core strategyPredict before you peek; summarize each text; match scope to purpose. Classic trap: the word's most common meaning, not its context meaning.
Information & Ideas
Central ideas · evidence (text + data) · inferences
Core strategyOne-sentence summary; isolate the claim; stay inside the passage. Classic trap: true but off-claim; reasonable but not provable.
Std. English Conventions
Sentence boundaries · agreement, form & sense · modifiers
Core strategyTwo-Clause Test; isolate the true subject; check the timeline. Classic trap: the comma splice that "sounds right" because we pause.
Expression of Ideas
Transitions · rhetorical synthesis
Core strategyName the relationship from both sentences; use all the notes. Classic trap: "Therefore" where the logic is actually contrast.
The arc

A starting number, turned into a finishing number.

Four phases between two measurements. The diagnostic sets the baseline; each phase pulls a different lever; the parallel post-test proves the gain.

PHASE 1
Foundation
Sessions 1–2
Establish the format, meet all four domains, learn to recognize and eliminate wrong answers. A shared map and a confirmed starting point.
PHASE 2
Core Skills
Sessions 3–12
The core of the course. One domain sub-skill per session, taught as a repeatable method and drilled from guided feedback to hard timed sets.
PHASE 3
Integration
Sessions 13–16
Skills come together. Distractor analysis, true module pacing (71 sec/question), and genre-intensive science and literature sessions.
PHASE 4
Simulation
Sessions 17–20
Hard-module questions only, a full 27-question timed simulation, and a final strategy session closing with the Form B re-measure.
Bookend · Day one

Form A — the Pre-Test

20 questions, 25 minutes. Scores by domain, saves to your browser, and hands you a Baseline Code to keep.

Bookend · Session 20

Form B — the Post-Test

Same blueprint, different passages. Reads your saved baseline and renders Pre vs Post growth with an estimated point shift.

Why two forms rather than the same test twice: identical items would let memory inflate the "gain." Forms A and B share the exact blueprint — five questions per domain, same difficulty mix, different passages — so the before/after delta reflects real skill, not recall.

Reference & challenge for Standard English Conventions

Two extras for the section students gain the most from. The Memorize Sheet puts every SEC rule on one printable page. The S.E.C. Challenge Workshop is a separate 10-session intensive for stronger students or anyone who finishes early — tracked on its own, so it never touches your main course progress.

Practice resources outside the course

The course gives you everything you need to finish — but when you want more, there's a whole world of free, official Digital SAT practice. We've curated the best of it and, just as important, told you how to use it without drowning the daily work: a short list to supplement during class weeks, and a full independent path for after the course ends, all the way to your test date.
