About Digital SAT
The digital SAT consists of two sections: Reading and Writing, and Math. Students are allotted 64 minutes to complete the Reading and Writing section and 70 minutes for the Math section, totaling 2 hours and 14 minutes.
Each section is further divided into two equally timed modules, with a 10-minute break between the Reading and Writing section and the Math section. The first module in each section includes a diverse range of questions, varying in difficulty from easy to hard. Depending on a student's performance in the first module, the second module will adjust in difficulty, becoming either more challenging or less so.

For all questions, there is no penalty for guessing. If you're uncertain about an answer, it's advisable to make an educated guess rather than leave the response blank
Let’s focus on the Math section, as this site is dedicated exclusively to that area.SAT MATH Section
The Math section is split into two modules, each allowing 35 minutes to answer 22 questions. While most questions are multiple-choice, some require you to input your answer instead of selecting from provided options.
