Are these the real questions from the SAT or ACT?

No, and that is the point. Each question is written to look and feel like the real digital SAT or ACT and is built around a specific way the exam tries to trip you up, so you practice catching the pattern instead of memorizing a leaked answer.

Do you have full-length ACT practice tests?

Yes. There are free full-length ACT practice tests with authentic English, Math, Reading, and Science sections, scored 1 to 36 with a composite, plus shorter single-section tests. They are built to match the current ACT, not leaked from it.

Can I practice the ACT Science section?

Yes. ACT Science tests how you read graphs, tables, and experiments under time, not memorized facts. We have a full ACT Science question bank plus Science sections inside the full-length ACT tests, so you can practice the reasoning that section rewards.

Yes, fully free to use. No paywall, no credit card, and no ads. There is also a no-sign-up demo you can try instantly. If we ever add paid features, we will tell you in advance and will not take away anything you already have.

How is this different from an app that just gives you the answer?

Some apps just hand you the answer, but on test day it is just you and four choices. We show you why the tempting wrong answers are built to look right, so you learn to catch them yourself. Every question is independently checked before it ships, so you are never practicing against a wrong answer key.

How do I know the questions and answer keys are correct?

Every question is solved from scratch and independently checked before it ships. We re-checked all 20,100+ questions in one pass and fixed every error we found, and you can flag any question in one tap for human review.

I have run out of official SAT or ACT practice tests. Can this help?

Yes. We have 50+ full-length practice tests across the digital SAT and the ACT, built to match the current exams, including the harder second SAT module that catches people off guard. The SAT is scored on the College Board's published conversion and the ACT on a 1 to 36 scale.

Should I take the SAT or the ACT?

Colleges accept both equally, so take the one you score better on. The digital SAT is shorter and adaptive with a calculator for all of Math; the ACT is faster per question and includes a Science section. Try a short drill of each here and focus your practice on whichever feels more natural.

Where does the practice-test score come from?

SAT sections are converted with the College Board's published raw-to-scaled tables and ACT sections use the published 1 to 36 scale. The conversion is official and the questions are original, so read the number as a solid estimate rather than an official score, with roughly a 60-point band on the SAT.

How the tests work now

Which free SAT practice sites are actually free

6 min read · October 5, 2026

In 30 seconds

Start with Bluebook, the Student Question Bank and Khan Academy. All three are free and none of them needs an upgrade.
Free to start is not free. Ask whether a card is required, whether questions run out, and whether the score report is locked.
A site can be free to use and still carry ads, or free for you and still sell a premium tier to someone else.

Three practice sites can all call themselves free and mean three different things. One takes no money from you ever. One is free until question twenty. One is free, forever, and pays for itself by showing you advertising.

The word does not separate them, so here are four questions that do, and the answers seven sites gave when we checked them on 4 October 2026.

The three official sources cost nothing, and you should use them first

Before any third-party site, including ours:

Bluebook is College Board's own app and the place to take official full-length adaptive practice tests. They use the real timing and the real on-screen tools, though practice mode lets you pause the clock or move on before a section ends.
The Student Question Bank holds thousands of official questions you can filter by section, topic and difficulty. Free. This is the one most lists forget, and it is the closest thing to our own product that exists.
Khan Academy's Official SAT Prep is built with College Board, and Khan Academy's privacy policy states it does not show third-party advertising.

If you have not finished these, you do not have a shortage of free practice. You have a shortage of time. Our own advice on what to do when the official full-length tests run out is in a separate piece on that exact problem.

Four questions that separate free from free-to-start

Run these on any site, including this one. Each takes under a minute.

Does it ask for a card? Enter the practice flow and watch for a payment field. A card request on a free product is a trial with a different name.
Do the questions run out? Answer ten or fifteen in a row. A cap usually appears as a prompt to upgrade rather than as a stated limit.
Is the result locked? Finish something and try to see what you got wrong. Plenty of sites give the score away and charge for the explanation, which is the half that teaches you anything.
Are there ads? Look at the page while you answer. Then look at the terms of service, because a site with no ads today may already have reserved the right to add them.

Question four matters more than it sounds. One site we checked shows no advertising at all right now, and its terms explicitly permit it and its partners to display ads. That is not deception. It is a reminder that what you see today is not a promise.

What seven sites answered in October 2026

Checked 4 October 2026. Every column is about the SAT practice itself, not about the company.

Site	Scope	Costs you nothing	Ads seen while practicing	Paid tier exists	Card to start
Bluebook (College Board)	SAT, PSAT	yes	none seen	no	no
Student Question Bank (College Board)	SAT, PSAT	yes	none seen	no	no
Khan Academy Official SAT Prep	SAT	yes	none, stated in its policy	not for SAT prep	no
Satified	SAT Math only	yes	none seen, site states none	no	no
Preppinbee	SAT	yes	none seen, terms permit them	not for students	no
PrepArc	SAT	yes	none seen, site states none	yes, a premium subscription	no
Break the Test (us)	SAT, ACT, AP, essays	yes	none, and we sell no advertising	no	no

Read that fourth column narrowly. "None seen" means nobody saw an advert while practicing on 4 October 2026. It is not a promise about next month, and for most of these sites there is no published commitment either way. Only Khan Academy states the position in a policy you can read. That gap is the point of question four, not a flaw in the table.

Two notes that the table cannot hold.

Khan Academy sells a separate paid product that has nothing to do with SAT prep. Saying "Khan Academy has no paid tier" would be wrong. Saying its SAT practice is free and ad-free is right.

PrepArc's own site says no ads, and its privacy policy describes a premium subscription billed through a payment processor. Both can be true. It belongs in any honest list of free question banks and does not belong in a list of sites with no paid tier.

Where we sit in that table

We are free, we show no advertising, we have no premium tier and we never ask for a card. That is the whole product, not a tier of it.

We are also not the only site in that position, and this piece would be worth less if we pretended otherwise. Satified qualifies on every column, for SAT Math. Both College Board tools qualify, and Khan Academy's SAT prep qualifies.

Every question in our bank is solved from scratch and independently checked before it ships, and the math is verified symbolically. Where the checks disagree, the question does not go out.

That still does not catch everything. On 2 October a student told us a question was confusing. Its setup asked for the largest integer satisfying an inequality and its prompt asked for "the value of n", so answering the prompt as written gave the boundary and was marked wrong. The student was right and the question was defective. The answer key had been correct the whole time, which is exactly why every automatic check passed it. It is fixed, and the check that should have caught it now blocks that shape outright.

Use the free ones in this order

Bluebook first, and only for full-length tests. Leave the clock running and do not skip ahead, because practice mode lets you do both and a standard-time test will not. There are a limited number, and a test you remember is no longer a measurement.
The Student Question Bank for drilling a specific weakness with official wording.
Khan Academy when you need the underlying skill taught rather than tested.
A third-party bank, ours or another, for volume after the official material is spent, and for the patterns behind your misses rather than more hours.

Spending money is not the step you are missing. Most students have not finished the free official material, and no paid course changes that.

Our practice tests and drills are free, with no account required to try them: see the free practice tests.

Sit one under real conditions. Full-length digital SAT and ACT practice tests, timed and structured the way the current exams are, including the second module that catches people out.
