Highest-Leverage Focus Areas
Ranked by leverage: how weak the skill is, weighted by how heavily the SAT tests it. These return the most points per hour.
# Skill Score Impact Why it matters 1 Exponential Functions 35% High Advanced Math is 35% of the section. Growth/decay and solving exponentials recur often. 2 Quadratic Equations 38% High Heavily tested in Advanced Math; factoring and the quadratic formula appear across word problems. 3 Radical Equations 40% High Advanced Math. A reliable fix: always check for extraneous solutions. 4 Semicolons & Colons 38% Medium Standard English Conventions, 26% of R&W. A learnable rule with quick payoff. 5 Run-ons & Fragments 42% Medium Sentence boundaries show up throughout the writing questions.

Pacing, by section
Timing & Pacing
Each section has its own pacing story. Red bars run over target; faded bars are rushed or left blank.
Math target ~95s / question
Slow on Quadratics — averaged 3+ min. Drill techniques for fluency.
Module 2 (harder) — ran short on time near the end.
Reading & Writing target ~71s / question
3 questions left blank (Q38–40). Practice a skip-and-return strategy.
Rush pattern — last 8 questions under 30 sec each. Build stamina.
Why answers were missed
Error-Type Breakdown
Of 40 missed questions, why each was missed, because the fix is different for each.
22 Concept gap
The underlying skill needs re-teaching, this is the core of the study plan. 6 Careless slip
Knew it, mis-stepped. Fix with slow-down checkpoints and double-checking. 5 Misread the question
Answered the wrong thing. Fix by underlining exactly what is asked. 7 Ran out of time
Blank or rushed at the end. A pacing/stamina problem, not a knowledge one.
How Jane answered
Confidence & Guessing
Self-rated confidence against actual results, to separate real gaps from shaky-but-known.
52 Confident & correct Strong foundation, maintain these.
12 Confident & wrong Overconfidence, review carefully.
8 Guessed & correct Hidden knowledge, build confidence.
14 Guessed & wrong Expected gaps, prioritize in prep.
Heavy guessing on Exponentials, Trig, and Punctuation, a sign of genuine weakness or end-of-test fatigue.
A closer look
Misconception Spotlight
Specific reasoning errors we caught, the kind a raw score never shows.
Exponential growth
Read a 1.15 growth factor as "add 1.15" instead of a 15% rate.
Quadratics
Reached for the quadratic formula where factoring was faster, and forgot to set the equation equal to zero first.
Semicolons vs colons
Used a semicolon to introduce a list, where a colon was needed.
Radical equations
Solved correctly but skipped checking for extraneous solutions.
Fastest points
Quick Wins
Closest to the next level, and heavily tested.
These three are nearly at the next band and appear often. Nail them first for an estimated 30–50 point jump.
