Passage

The naturalist Anna Botsford Comstock argued that a child taught to look closely at a single leaf had learned more than one marched through a textbook. Her terse field guides omitted nearly everything a rival volume would include.

As used in the text, terse most nearly means

Alengthy
Babrupt
Cconcise
Dunclear

She is set against writers who were exhaustive. The contrast is length, not tone — which rules out abrupt.

The reading desk — passage held left, reasoning right.

How it works

Short sets, instant results, a map that fills in.

  1. 01

    Tap a skill

    Every SAT skill is a tile on your map. Pick one and answer 5 or 10 questions — no setup, no account.

  2. 02

    See where you stand

    Your score and every explanation the moment you finish, and the tile changes color as you improve.

  3. 03

    Follow “Next up”

    One suggestion for what to practice next. Want more structure? Start a 3- or 7-day sprint — and quit anytime.

Try one

A real question, before you sign up for anything.

This is what a session looks like: a Digital SAT–style question, then a plain explanation of why each choice is right or wrong.

Reading & Writing · Words in Context

Though praised by audiences, the film was dismissed by several prominent critics as a superficial spectacle — visually striking, they conceded, but ultimately hollow in its emotional and intellectual content. The director, undeterred by these assessments, argued that cinema need not always carry a weighty message to be valuable.

As used in the text, what does the word “conceded” most nearly mean?

Questions

Before you start

How much does it cost?

Nothing, for now. 800Path is free during early access — every practice set, sprint and explanation. You don't need an account to start.

How much time does it take?

As little as you like. A set is 5 or 10 questions — at the Digital SAT's pace of about a minute and a half each, that's under 15 minutes. Sprints are one 10-question set a day. The optional quick start that colors in your whole map takes about 40 minutes.

Do I have to follow a plan?

No. Practice whatever you want from your skill map, and “Next up” suggests what to do next — it focuses on your weakest skills as your test date gets closer, if you add one. Sprints are there when you want a finish line, and you can quit one anytime.

Where do the questions come from?

Most come from a hand-built bank written to the Digital SAT's question types and four difficulty tiers, across all eleven Reading & Writing skills and the Math domains. AI-generated practice sets add extra reps on the skills you pick. They aren't official College Board questions.
