Build a practice set instead of hunting for one

Standard English conventions on the SAT Reading and Writing section are easy to recognize once you see them and hard to recall under time pressure. Comma splices, misused apostrophes, subject-verb agreement and transitions all repeat, which makes them good material for a SAT language and writing practice test built from your own notes.

Questions drawn from your grammar notes, handouts or practice passages
Multiple-choice, true/false and short answer formats with explanations
Study in the browser on the free plan, with 3 generations per month
Plus adds unlimited generations and PDF, DOCX, Anki and CSV export

Example SAT language and writing practice questions

The collection of rare coins ___ displayed in the lobby. Which verb completes the sentence correctly: are or is?is. The subject is 'collection,' which is singular, so the verb must be singular too.

Which word is correct in this sentence: The museum reopened after ___ renovation? Choose its or it's.its. It is a possessive pronoun, and possessive its never takes an apostrophe.

Which punctuation correctly joins these two independent clauses: The test was long, the students were tired?A semicolon: The test was long; the students were tired. A comma alone creates a comma splice.

In 'The reforms ameliorated working conditions,' which word best replaces ameliorated: worsened or improved?improved. The context signals a positive change, and ameliorated means made better.

Which sentence has a misplaced modifier: Walking home, the rain soaked her?The sentence as written. Walking describes the rain, so revise to: Walking home, she was soaked by the rain.

Frequently asked questions

How many questions should I practice for the SAT Reading and Writing section?

What grammar rules show up most often in SAT language and writing questions?

Common targets include subject-verb agreement, punctuation between independent clauses, apostrophes and possessive pronouns, transitions and modifier placement. Your notes or practice books are the best place to find the specific rules your course covers.
