SAT Reading and Writing Packets (2020 Edition): Practice Materials

NOTE: This edition is meant for the paper-and-pencil SAT format that was discontinued in 2023. It still includes helpful tips, strategies, and practice questions that students should find useful for the digital SAT; however, the Reading section underwent significant changes in 2024. Be sure to supplement this study guide with other resources specifically for the digital SAT from Settele Tutoring and others so that you are prepared for the new question formats.
