How do I get faster at SAT Reading and Writing questions?

Short answer

Get faster by naming the question type before reading the answer choices. Transitions, grammar, evidence, main idea, and vocabulary questions reward different first moves.

What to do next

Before each answer choice, write a one-word task label such as contrast, boundary, evidence, or main idea.

The common mistake

Reading every answer choice with no prediction makes trap choices sound equally plausible.
