90-Day SAT Study Plan
Ninety days is enough for a serious SAT rebuild. The plan should start broad, then narrow around your most expensive mistakes.
12-week roadmap
Use the first month for fundamentals, the second for targeted practice, and the third for test simulation.
| Phase | Weeks | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Foundation | 1-4 | Skill review and error log |
| Targeted practice | 5-8 | Weak skills and timed modules |
| Test simulation | 9-12 | Full tests and final review |
Review system
Every miss should be tagged as content gap, careless error, misread, or pacing problem.
How to know whether the plan is working
A study plan is working when the same miss pattern appears less often each week.
- Track misses by skill, not just by section score.
- Repeat missed questions 48 hours later before adding more new drills.
- Use one timed module each week as the transfer test.
- If the same mistake appears twice, make the next drill narrower.
