Your starting point
Save a recent practice result and list two specific weaknesses. If you do not have a result, begin with an official practice checkpoint when you can also make time for review.
Online study · Setup and continuity
Online SAT preparation works better when you spend your session learning instead of searching for the next resource. Give your accounts, notes, and study time a simple structure.

Start here
Start with one place for your plan and one place for your mistakes. Add another app only when it solves a problem your current setup leaves open.
Save a recent practice result and list two specific weaknesses. If you do not have a result, begin with an official practice checkpoint when you can also make time for review.
Keep the relevant lesson, scratch paper, and error log ready. Silence optional notifications during the session. Use a readable screen and a setup you can repeat during the week.
Confirm you can sign in and find earlier work. If studying across school and home devices, test that route before depending on it. Keep passwords in your usual secure password manager.
Put it into practice
Choose one weakness, study the relevant concept, and answer a small set independently. Save the reason for each miss rather than copying an explanation word for word.
Return to the first skill with fresh questions. Add a second skill only when the first is understandable. Mix topics to check whether you recognize which method to use.
Review what you can now do independently and what still needs help. Schedule another full test only when it answers a useful question about progress and leaves room for reviewing the result.
A working checklist
Use this during your session. These checkmarks are a temporary worksheet and are not saved to your Dolphin progress.
