Every student should take at least one practice test in Bluebook, because it is the app the real digital SAT runs in. College Board offers free full-length adaptive practice tests there, along with a Student Question Bank, practice score reports in My Practice and a newer Tailored Practice feature that serves questions based on how a student did on real tests and Bluebook practice. College Board also points students to free live small-group tutoring led by trained peer tutors at Schoolhouse.world. On its own, Bluebook is a testing tool, not a course: there are no video lessons or study plans that teach content. That is why it ranks below the two full programs above it. Pair it with Khan Academy, which College Board recommends, or with any paid course.
