Why practice by skill?
The digital SAT reports your mastery by content domain, and the adaptive format punishes uneven skills: one weak area drags down the module routing that decides whether the top scores are even reachable. Drilling your two or three weakest skills moves your score faster than re-taking full tests — that's the loop ExamNexus AI automates, from a 20-minute diagnostic to a personalized study roadmap.
