Score improvements with and without Official SAT® Practice

Graph data shows the average number of points gained from PSAT/NMSQT® to SAT correlated to hours spent practicing on Khan Academy. On average, zero hours of official SAT practice yielded a 60 point increase, six hours of practice yielded a 90 point increase and 20 hours of practice yielded a 115 point increase. Out of the 250,000 students from the Class of 2017 covered in the study, more than 16,000 gained 200 points or more between the PSAT/NMSQT® and SAT.
