Khan Academy offers a scaffold SAT prep program that diagnoses your level and takes you through practice questions, step by step. It was developed in collaboration with College Board, so the practice questions are official and realistic. Their combination of video and written explanations will also appeal to different learning styles. On Khan Academy's interactive site, you can set up an account and take diagnostic tests in each section of the SAT. Then Khan Academy will suggest what level you should focus on and present you with the question types that will most help you improve. It breaks each section down into subtopics and gives you some helpful tips for how to structure your prep schedule. Because it keeps track of your progress, you can log in from anywhere with internet and pick up where you left off. Additionally, you can link your PSAT results to Khan Academy for personalized practice!
College Board is another critical site for online practice questions. Official questions from the test makers are always the gold standard when it comes to test prep. You can practice with online Reading, Writing, and Math questions and automatically see your correct answers and mistakes, along with answer explanations. You can also read two sample essay prompts, plus sample essays that scored at levels 1 through 8. In addition to these online, automatically scored practice questions, you can find four free official practice tests. You can time yourself as you take these four practice tests, which resemble what you'll get on test day, and then spend time correcting them with the answer keys provided.

The ACT contains four multiple-choice tests—English, mathematics, reading, and science—and an optional writing test. These tests are designed to measure skills that are most important for success in postsecondary education and that are acquired in secondary education. The score range for each of the four multiple-choice tests is 1–36. The Composite score is the average of the four test scores rounded to the nearest whole number.
