The Problem
When you miss a level 5 question on an SAT practice test, you need to practice a dozen or more just like it. But where are you going to find the questions?
The Solution
CrushTheTest. Suppose you miss a hard probability question. Start with CrushTheTest Probability I. There you find 8 probability questions, ALL as hard as the hardest real SAT questions. CrushTheTest Probability II has eight more, even harder, problems - think two or three level 5 SAT questions rolled into one. Not enough? Hone your skills to a razor-sharp edge with two super-hard problems in CrushTheTest Probability III.
You won't be missing any more SAT probability questions after doing all three CrushTheTest levels. But what about remainders questions? You're covered. Prime numbers? We've got that too. Functions? Of course! There are 21 CrushTheTest categories and a total of 378 questions. Each category has three difficulty levels: hard, harder, and hardest.
