Short answer: College Board runs a free SAT Suite Question of the Day at qotd.collegeboard.org. It gives you one official SAT Suite question at a time, written by the people who make the SAT. Pair it with College Board's Student Question Bank and a full practice test, and a daily SAT question becomes a real study habit.
Where to get a daily SAT question
College Board calls its Question of the Day a fun and fast way to check your knowledge. The questions come from the makers of the SAT Suite, so you answer official questions in a game-like setting. It costs nothing, and one question takes only a few minutes.
How to get more out of one question a day
- Time yourself. On the SAT you get 64 minutes for 54 Reading and Writing questions and 70 minutes for 44 Math questions. That is a little over a minute per Reading and Writing question and about a minute and a half per Math question.
- Explain the answer out loud. If you got it right, say why each wrong choice fails. If you got it wrong, write down the rule you missed.
- Track your misses. After two weeks, look for a pattern, such as transitions or linear equations.
When one question a day is not enough
A daily question keeps you warm. It does not show you how you hold up for two hours and 14 minutes. Once you know your weak skill, move to targeted sets. College Board's Student Question Bank has thousands of official practice questions. You can filter them by assessment, section, domain, skill and difficulty in My Practice. See how in College Board My Practice.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there an official SAT question of the day?
Yes. College Board runs a free SAT Suite Question of the Day at qotd.collegeboard.org. The questions come from the makers of the SAT Suite, so you practice with official content. College Board describes it as a fun and fast way to check your knowledge in a game-like setting. You do not need to pay for it.
Is one SAT question a day enough practice?
It is a good habit, but it is not enough on its own. The SAT takes 2 hours and 14 minutes and has 98 questions, so you also need full timed practice. Use the daily question to stay sharp, then add targeted question sets for weak skills and at least one full-length practice test before test day.
How should I use a daily SAT question?
Time yourself, answer, then explain why each wrong choice fails. Write down the rule behind every miss. After two weeks, look for a pattern, such as transitions or linear equations, and practice that skill with a set of official questions. A short log of your misses tells you far more than the daily score.
Where can I find more official SAT practice questions?
College Board's Student Question Bank has thousands of official practice questions. You can filter them by assessment, section, domain, skill and difficulty, and you sign in through My Practice. College Board also offers free full-length practice tests in the Bluebook app and free lessons on Official SAT Prep on Khan Academy.
Is there an ACT question of the day too?
Yes. ACT offers a new ACT question each day if you create a free MyACT account. Each question comes with an explanation and tips. If you are deciding between the two tests, try both daily questions for a week. Then compare which format feels more natural before you choose a test.
