Standard English Conventions is the most learnable part of the Digital SAT: a small set of rules, tested in predictable ways. This intensive turns the section where you've been losing points into your most reliable source of them — one sub-skill at a time, each session built on the same teach → guided → timed rhythm as the main course, with an Error Log that profiles your four SEC sub-skills as you go.
Each 60-minute session follows the same arc — so the structure fades into the background and the rule takes the foreground.
A short error to spot — previews the day's rule.
The rule, taught with the handout open and worked examples.
Four items with instant feedback — see the trap as you make it.
Six on a locked clock that auto-scores into your sub-skill log.
Review misses and watch your weakest sub-skill climb.
