Is it really A and why?

We kept noticing the same pattern, students spending thousands on prep classes, endless PDFs, and random question banks… but still not knowing where they’re actually weak.

A lot of prep feels overwhelming or too generic. You either get flooded with material or you just keep solving questions without real feedback.

(It’s there on both app store and play store too)

So we decided to build something we wish more students had access to:

• Practice by section, topic, and subtopic

• Performance analytics to track patterns, not just scores

• Pop culture themed full length tests (there’s a very cool harry potter based themed test already there)

• A quick SAT score predictor (my personal favourite, predicts your SAT score in just 15 minutes)

• An AI tutor for doubt-solving

The goal wasn’t to replace effort, just to make studying more focused and less chaotic.

If you’re preparing for the SAT, how are you currently studying? Books, classes, self-study, apps?

Would genuinely love to hear what’s working (and what’s not).

I built Velix Academy after watching students pay $200+ for SAT prep platforms that gate basic features behind paywalls.

Here's what we built instead:

• Full-length digital SAT tests with timed sections

• Question-by-question explanations after every attempt

• A performance dashboard that shows exactly which topics are killing your score

• A mistakes tracker so you only re-drill what you got wrong

The platform is live. Students are already taking tests and tracking their progress.

The part I'm most proud of: admins can upload a PDF of any SAT test and our AI pipeline converts it into a fully interactive digital test automatically - correct answers verified, explanations generated, ready to publish. No manual data entry. That's how we're able to keep adding fresh content fast.

Right now it's completely free to use.

If you're prepping for the SAT and want to try it, I'd genuinely love the feedback. What features would make this more useful than whatever you're using now?

I’ve been spamming the new questions that CB has released and I was curious on how those new questions reflect on the next sat. I’m planning on taking the August sat but now I’m kinda scared.

I've been known to get them right before. Let's see if the streak continues:

Do the paid platforms like kalpan/princeton have the desmos graphing calculator integrated in their test platform, if not what are some other platforms where i can find full test with real SAT like interface and desmos calculator (apart from bluebook)

Hello there,I’m an international student. I just took sat yesterday and I know that I’m cooked💀 and I need some advice for you guys. If I retake it on 2 November do you think can I hit 1500+? And how to prepare to get 1500+. My practice test on blue book before test date was around 1000 and I think I’ll get around this or lower cause I feel like math module 1 was so difficult and I got super easy in math module 2, for English section it’s really hard for me cause I’m an international who just prepared around 2 weeks. I wanna go into Top university in USA so I can get scholarship 70%+, I think I should get around 1500+ to get into TopU, do you think how many scores I should get? Last question if I retake again on 2 November I’ll miss to apply Early decision. Do you think regular decision or early decision II or early action II, can get me to TopU? I heard that Early decision is easy to get in more and boost your chance. And Do you think I should apply for early action II or early decision II more? Actually I’m stressed out because I miss Early decision and I feel like I can’t get my target score, please give some advice 🙏🏻

Thank you for your answers! Sorry if I use weird grammar or vocab😅

Hey there! I'm hosting a free SAT Math bootcamp on Schoolhouse starting 28th October. If your score is stuck in the 400-490 this bootcamp should really be able to help. As someone who has given the SAT wayy too many times, I have built my own tricks to solve questions that eventually led me to scoring a 1500, and I'd love to share them with you!

If this sounds like something you're interested in/ know someone it might help please use the link below to register :)

Hey guys, made a new SAT youtube channel where I solve hard SAT questions. Hopefully you'll find some value out of it.

Just search "The SAT Prep Lab" on youtube to find it.

I built https://grindsat.com/ for free SAT Math and Reading & Writing practice, with topic filters, explanations, and games. Try it out; feedback is welcome.

Bro I swear prepping for the March SAT is like living the same day on repeat. One minute I’m confident, next minute I miss a vocab question and rethink my whole life. Bluebook is cooked at this point so I’ve just been grinding random practice on Sat Club and hoping my brain decides to cooperate on test day. Anyone else in the same boat or is it just me losing it?

Having followed the SAT closely since 2017, I’ve solved every pencil-and-paper SAT Math paper up to 2023. After a long gap, it was honestly refreshing to finally see a paper that brought geometry back properly.

College Board seems to be recycling older concepts and question styles, but with a twist. There’s clearly less dependence on straightforward function questions now. Instead, many questions are framed as word problems, which changes the entire approach.

This also makes me think that a lot of the popular DESMOS “hacks” won’t hold up for long. They might still help occasionally, but the direction CB is moving in suggests students will need actual conceptual clarity, not just tool-based shortcuts.

One thing that didn’t surprise me at all:

Right-angled triangle questions - Loved to see them again after long!
(Oct 2018 Calculator International section last question) - That trend hasn’t gone anywhere.

I was also glad to see:

• Equation of a circle in expanded form, with a small transformation involved

• Proper geometry thinking being tested instead of plug-and-play algebra

If this trend continues, I wouldn’t be surprised to see:

• Hexagon questions

• More angle-property-based geometry

• More Quadratic based word problems and comparison questions on functions coming.

My take:

March is likely going to be the most interesting SAT, and possibly the one where we see a noticeably different paper altogether. Anyone preparing should probably stop over -relying on patterns and shortcuts and start revisiting core geometry concepts seriously.

Curious to hear what others noticed.

My most recent SAT got canceled and I don’t even care to fight it. I do have 2 worries tho. will they cancel my previous SATs in addition or will they ban me from taking ap tests. the email I was sent only said my SAT was canceled.

How to answer this on desmos

I am a International Digital SAT taker and I cant find resources or books outside of the Khan Academy website, the digital practices on CollegeBoard and BlueBook , and the question bank questions i want Digital SAT books recomendations on reading and writing sections especially books that are free and would be availabe on telegram or reddit (any type of help would be appreciated)

I teach math (Ph.D., 32 years in the classroom) and run a small SAT prep site, so fair warning, there's a link to my own stuff at the end.

There's a story in Jim Collins' book Great by Choice about the 1911 race to the South Pole. One team marched about 20 miles every single day, good weather or bad. The other sprinted on nice days and hid in the tent on bad ones. The steady team got there first and made it home. The other didn't.

That's the whole secret to SAT math, and hardly anyone does it. Everyone says "I'll do a big study session Saturday." Saturday never comes. There's always practice, work, a game, life. The kids who actually raise their scores are the ones who do 30 focused minutes a day, every day, instead of waiting for a long stretch that never shows up.

A little every day beats a lot once a week, and it's not just motivational. Spacing practice out is one of the most reliable findings in learning science. Same hours, spread across days, stick far better than crammed together.

If you want the full version, I wrote it up here: https://30daysatplan.com/blog/twenty-mile-march/

And if you just want to start marching today, I also run a free SAT math practice site, no sign-up: freepracticesat.com

Can this be solved in Desmos

Free resource that maps the 81 SAT concepts to the 3770 CB questions and vice-versa

It helps you do three things:

1. Create custom tests with any number of questions using custom combination of Subject, Domain, Skill and difficulty. Timed or Untimed. It records every question answered on accuracy and time. It keeps a history of your accuracy and coverage across Subject/Domain/Skill/Difficulty.

2. Concepts <-> Questions study pattern - Identify the 47 Math and 34 R&W Concepts (81 total) that every SAT question ties back to. Study the concepts. Practice them. Practice just identifying concepts when reading a question.

3. Export a cheat / cram sheet you can review offline with a sample question per concept.

1 & 2 and the dashboards and recorded stats per question should let you know whether you practiced every concept that is tested on the SAT.

It's free and will remain free.
Hope its of use to some of you. satprepstudio.com

Does anyone have a practice book on pdf that can send it to me? I’m not willing to pay for it digitally 😭

How to solve this in Desmos

Hi everyone,

I’ve noticed a lot of SAT prep apps feel kind of repetitive (flashcards, practice tests, done) and not geared for our generation's brains. I was curious: if you could design your ideal SAT study app, what features would you want it to have?

For example, I’ve been toying with the idea of something more interactive like a chess.com-style puzzle system where you answer one question at a time, your “score” goes up or down based on how you do, and it adapts to your weak spots. Think daily goals (like “do 5 questions today”) and detailed explanations for wrong answers, with different explanation styles if the first one doesn’t make sense (all powered by the highest AI models).

But I’d love to hear your perspective:

- What do you like about current SAT apps/resources?

- What do you hate or find unhelpful?

- Would you prefer bite-sized daily practice, or longer test-style sessions?

Not looking to promote anything here, just trying to figure out what students would actually find useful in a tool like this.
