44 delivered = 40 scored + 4 unscored pretest questions
70 minutes. Domain blueprint percentages below use the 40 scored questions, not all 44 delivered questions.
Observed practice question mix
Select a section to inspect the reviewed practice denominator.
Counts are question occurrences in the selected forms, not unique questions or actual exam sittings. Repeated or related items across forms are not a larger independent sample. Linear practice is not the adaptive digital test. A zero means no classified occurrence in these selected forms, not that the skill is absent from the SAT or unimportant.
Official blueprint by domain
Approximate proportions are compared within each scored section. The observed counts beside skills use the selected practice section denominator and do not inherit the domain blueprint percentage.

Sources, method and limits
Each reviewed practice question receives one primary skill classification. These are our analyst-assigned classifications, not official item tags. Unresolved classifications remain unclassified and outside the classified denominator. No official question, passage or answer explanation is reproduced here. All teaching and practice in the linked lessons is original. This independent learning resource is not affiliated with or endorsed by College Board.
