Lessons and drills, and how they differ
There are 30 Digital SAT skills and 90 micro-lessons across them — three per skill.
A lesson is a few cards carrying one idea, with the outline of the whole lesson beside them.


Then its recall questions. Answering correctly is what advances you, and the explanation comes with the answer either way.


A drill is the same questions with the teaching removed, ordered by the skills you keep missing.


A lessonLink to the section: A lesson
A few cards carrying one idea, with a diagram where a diagram explains it better, and then recall questions. You do not advance by clicking next — you advance by answering correctly, which means a lesson you rushed does not register as a lesson you did.
A drillLink to the section: A drill
The same questions with the teaching removed: question, answer, correction, next. No cards, no reading step, no unlock gate. Fast enough to do ten of standing up, and ordered by the skills you keep getting wrong.
What proficiency measuresLink to the section: What proficiency measures
Your answers, not your progress through a page. There is no route through the material that produces a high number without producing correct answers first.
