What is the purpose of the 'Review' screen accessible at the end of a Digital SAT module?
Answer: It shows which questions are answered, unanswered, or bookmarked so you can navigate back
The Review screen gives a visual overview of question statuses — answered, unanswered, or flagged — allowing targeted navigation before time expires.
How does Bluebook handle the transition between the two modules of the same section on the Digital SAT?
Answer: It automatically moves to Module 2 after Module 1 time expires, with no option to go back
Once Module 1's time is up, Bluebook automatically advances to Module 2; you cannot return to Module 1 answers.
What type of questions in the Math section of the Digital SAT require you to type a numeric answer rather than select from choices?

Which of the following best describes the 'module-level adaptive' design of the Digital SAT compared to the old paper SAT?

The Digital SAT uses module-level (not question-level) adaptivity, routing test takers to a higher- or lower-difficulty Module 2 based on Module 1 performance.
