Why Waste Time On Lists That Don't Work?

Most SAT prep materials are stuck in the past. You're forced to memorize thousands of obscure words from massive, outdated lists that weren't designed for the new Digital SAT. This wastes your most valuable asset: your time.

How We Validated Every Word

Unlike traditional SAT word lists based on outdated frequency analysis or teacher opinions, we use a systematic validation process that tracks real student experiences across 18 test administrations since March 2023.

The list evolves with the actual test—continuously updated based on what students report seeing, not what we think might appear.

Systematic Survey Collection

After each SAT administration, we survey students about the vocabulary—to ensure our list hit yet again.

Pattern Analysis

Words that appear consistently across multiple test dates are identified and validated through our tracking system.

Continuous Updates

As patterns shift over time, the list evolves—removing words that will likely not be used again and adding emerging vocabulary trends.

Proven Results

Students consistently report recognizing words from our list on their actual SAT—validation that the methodology works.

This isn't guesswork. It's systematic data collection from students who actually took the test—tracked continuously since the Digital SAT began.

Tracked Since the Very First Digital SAT

As an SAT instructor based in Seoul since 2004, I've spent 20 years helping students master the SAT—over 1,000 students in my programs have achieved 1500+ scores during that time.

When the Digital SAT launched in March 2023—the first-ever Digital SAT administration—I immediately recognized that existing vocabulary resources, including those that had worked successfully for years, were now obsolete.

That's why I started tracking vocabulary from day one of the Digital format.

20 Years Teaching SAT
18 Test Administrations Tracked
2.5 Years of Continuous Data
1,000+ Students Scored 1500+

We've tracked the Digital format from the very beginning. When competitors start surveying today, they're already 2.5 years behind. This is the most comprehensive Digital SAT vocabulary dataset in existence—impossible to replicate without a time machine.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is this different from free word lists online?
Free lists (Quizlet, random PDFs) aren't validated. They're either someone's guess at important words, or they're based on outdated data. This list is continuously validated through systematic surveys of students who actually took the Digital SAT—tracked since the format launched in March 2023 across 18 test administrations. It's the same list used by students in premium $3,000/month SAT programs.
Will these exact words be on MY SAT?
We can't guarantee specific words on future tests—no one can. However, students consistently report seeing words from this list on recent SATs. The methodology identifies patterns across 2.5 years of continuous tracking, and Digital SAT vocabulary patterns remain relatively consistent.
When will I get access?
Immediately after purchase. You'll receive a download link via email within minutes. PDF format works on any device.
Is this affiliated with College Board?
No. This is an independent study resource created by an SAT instructor with 20 years of experience, based on student feedback, not official SAT material. We're not affiliated with or endorsed by College Board.
Why is this so much cheaper than your $3,000/month programs?
The premium programs include comprehensive instruction, personalized feedback, practice tests, essay review, and ongoing support. This is just the vocabulary list component—but it's the same validated list those students use. The list works on its own for vocabulary preparation.
What if I've already been studying other word lists?
Perfect—use this to prioritize. Cross-reference your current list with this validated one. Focus your remaining study time on the words that students actually report seeing on the Digital SAT.
Why word-bank format instead of traditional multiple choice?
Traditional multiple-choice questions make it too easy to simply recognize the word you just studied, rather than truly understanding its usage in context. Our word-bank format (20 words with 20 questions per section) forces you to carefully consider context and prevents recognition-based guessing. While the format differs from the actual SAT, the vocabulary and sentence complexity match what you'll encounter on test day. This method leads to better retention and genuine understanding.
How long does it take to study all 432 words?
Depends on your pace. Most students spend 2-4 weeks with intensive study, or 4-6 weeks at a moderate pace. The practice questions help with retention.
Can I print it?
Yes! The PDF is optimized for both digital study and printing. Study however works best for you.
What if new words appear after I buy?
You get free updates. As we gather new survey data and update the list, you'll receive the latest version at no additional cost.
