Additional 10 hours of online Workshops targeting test taking strategies
10 Hours of Test analysis and review (2 hour long sessions after each Mock PSAT)
5 Mock PSATs during the 5 weekends leading up to the test date
1 Official Full length College Board Tests

Customised practice sheets to address weak areas of the students (weak areas are determined through analysis of student’s performance on Mock PSATs)
The PSAT, or Preliminary SAT, is a standardized test that is primarily used as a practice test for the SAT. There are 3 different versions of the PSAT. They are designed for students in different grades and serve slightly different purposes. Here are the main versions:
Seasoned Trainers with more than 100,000 hrs of training experience
Comprehensive Online Student Portal
Well researched and up-to-date study material that covers all concepts tested on digital PSAT
PSAT Mock test papers that closely mirror the actual digital PSAT
Focus on learning by doing (digital PSAT is a highly application oriented test)
Data driven approach to identify areas of weakness for individual student
The digital PSAT comprises two sections: Reading and Writing and Math.
Reading & Writing Module 1
27
32 minutes
27
32 minutes
Break
10 minutes

Math Module 2

32 minutes
The total test duration is 2 hours 24 minutes (including the 10 minute break after the two modules of Reading and Writing).
The PSAT is scored between 320 and 1520. Math counts for half the composite score with a range of 160 - 760, and Reading & Writing contributes the remaining half with the same range of 160 - 760.
The content on SAT English is distributed across four domains that are described below:

Digital PSAT Math
Math modules on digital PSAT test students along four main categories (termed Domains by College Board). Given below is a break up of these four domains and the topics covered under each:
Comprising approximately 35% of the questions on SAT Math, Algebra tests student’s ability to frame and analyse linear expressions, including equations and inequalities. The topics include linear equations in one variable and two variables, linear inequalities in both one and two variables, linear functions, and simultaneous equations.
Advanced Math
Like Algebra, Advanced Math contributes to approximately 32.5% of the questions on SAT Math and includes such topics as quadratic equations, vertex form of parabola, equations of circles, translation of functions, exponential functions, absolute values, and system of equations.
This domain makes-up about 20% of the SAT Math section and includes arithmetic (percentages; ratios and proportions; time, speed, and distance, work and time, unit conversion) statistical measures (mean, median, mode, range, standard deviation) probability, and various forms of data representation, and application of the same concepts mentioned above in interpreting data.
Geometry and Trigonometry
This domain constitutes the remaining 12.5% of the SAT Math section. This domain tests some very basic concepts related to properties of right triangles and equilateral triangles, area and perimeter of two dimensional figures, surface area and volume of three dimensional figures, and basic trigonometric ratios.

Information and Ideas:
26% of the questions on the Reading and Writing section are based on texts (not more than 150 words long and including both poems and prose) that test student’s ability to identify the main idea, strengthen or weaken an assertion, find evidence related to a claim, and make valid inferences from text and data (charts and graphs).
This domain accounts for another 28% of the questions on the English section and tests student’s understanding of vocabulary, ability to identify the primary purpose and structure of given text (including poetry and prose), and skills at synthesizing information from two separate sources (in the form of texts).
Standard English Conventions:
This domain constitutes 26% of the questions on the Reading and Writing section. The rules tested under this domain include punctuation, subject verb agreement, pronouns, verb tenses, modifiers, and parallel construction.
20% of the questions on SAT Reading and Writing sections are distributed across two categories of Transitions and Rhetorical synthesis. Transition words test a student's ability to identify the relationship (such as contrast or cause and effect) between two sentences or two parts of a sentence. Rhetorical synthesis is a new format of questions in which information is presented in the form of notes and students have to identify the relevant piece of information to answer the question.
Geometry and Trigonometry
This domain constitutes the remaining 12.5% of the SAT Math section. This domain tests some very basic concepts related to properties of right triangles and equilateral triangles, area and perimeter of two dimensional figures, surface area and volume of three dimensional figures, and basic trigonometric ratios.
