SAT Practice by Topic
Topic practice is useful when you know what is costing you points. Start with one skill, review the explanation after every miss, then mix topics once the skill feels automatic.
What this page covers

Grammar: The historian found several letters in the archive; ______, only two were dated.
The second clause limits the usefulness of the letters, so the contrast transition 'however' fits.
Algebra: If 4x + 9 = 33, what is x?
Subtract 9 to get 4x = 24. Divide by 4, so x = 6.
Reading: A study found that students who explained their reasoning after each problem improved more than students who only checked whether answers were right. Which inference is best supported?
The comparison supports the limited conclusion that reviewing reasoning can improve learning more than checking correctness alone.
How to practice this topic
A few rules that make review sessions more useful.
- Use topic practice for diagnosis, then use mixed practice to build test-day flexibility.
- Keep a missed-question log organized by skill, not by date.
- If you miss the same topic twice, do a short focused set before moving on.
