What this program is
The Digital SAT is not the paper test with a screen bolted on. It is section-adaptive: how a student performs on the first module of a section decides the difficulty of the second, which means early accuracy is worth more than late heroics. Questions are shorter, reading passages are single-paragraph, and the whole test runs about two hours and fourteen minutes with a calculator allowed throughout the math sections.
That changes what preparation should look like. Grinding untimed question sets teaches content but not the skill the test actually measures — sustained accuracy under a clock, on question types you have learned to recognise in seconds. So we work backwards from a full-length diagnostic taken under real conditions in Bluebook, break the result down to skill level rather than section score, and spend coaching hours on the specific gaps that are costing points.
Every student gets one dedicated coach for the whole engagement, not a rotation. Between sessions the plan assigns targeted drills and spaced review; each full-length practice test is reviewed live, question by question, so a wrong answer is diagnosed once rather than repeated for six weeks.
What the plan covers
Diagnostic and target setting
A full-length practice test under real conditions, then a skill-level breakdown: which question types you miss, which you get right slowly, and which you get right by luck. We set a target score against your school list, not against a generic benchmark.
Reading and Writing — evidence and rhetoric
Command of evidence, central ideas, inference and rhetorical synthesis, worked on the short-passage format the digital test uses. The habit we build is reading the question before the passage and answering from the text rather than from memory.
Reading and Writing — standard English conventions
Punctuation, boundaries, verb forms, modifiers and transitions — the highest-frequency, fastest-to-fix band of points on the test. Rules are drilled to recognition speed, because these questions are worth the same as the hardest ones.
Math — algebra and problem solving
Linear equations and systems, ratios, rates, percentages and data analysis, which together make up the bulk of the math sections. Calculator strategy is taught explicitly: Desmos is faster than algebra for a specific set of question types and slower for others.
Math — advanced topics
Quadratics, exponentials, functions, geometry and trigonometry, sequenced by how often each appears and how far your diagnostic sits from the target.
Pacing, adaptivity and test-day routine
Module-one accuracy, when to skip and return, how to use the built-in flag tool, and a rehearsed test-day routine — sleep, food, materials, arrival. The last two weeks are timing and confidence, not new content.
Format and logistics
- Live 1:1 online, or in person where available
- Weekly 60- or 90-minute sessions
- 8–16 weeks, set by your test date
- Full-length, proctored, reviewed live
- Targeted drills and spaced review in the portal
- Progress dashboard plus written session notes
What you leave with
- A scored diagnostic and a written study plan you keep, whether or not you continue
- Question-type recognition fast enough to matter under time pressure
- A rehearsed pacing strategy for both adaptive modules of each section
- A test-day routine you have practised at least three times before it counts
Pricing
Pricing for this program depends on format, cadence and length, so we quote it on the consultation call rather than publishing a number that would be wrong for most families. Ask an advisor — the call is free and there is no obligation.

Preparation and coaching only. Score improvements depend on a student's starting point, attendance and practice; no specific score, admission or scholarship outcome is guaranteed. Published outcome figures are computed from our own students' paired assessments — see /outcomes for the method.
