UWorld’s Online Prep for the SAT and ACT Exams Reviews
I used UWorld to prepare my students for the SAT, specifically the math section. It tackles all the challenging aspects of the SAT. My students were confident in their math skills by the time they took the test.

The UWorld SAT platform provides a focused approach for improving both SAT performance overall and focused practice. The explanations of all answer choices—including the incorrect ones—are the best thing about this product. It’s a win for students who want to take control of their futures.

UWorld was truly the main reason why I got a 1500 on the SAT. It helped me tremendously, as it contained a massive question bank that targeted every topic tested on the SAT. The questions were so accurate that I was accustomed to every question on test day and answered them easily. Not only does it contain the best SAT questions possible, but it also contains the best explanation for every question available. For every question I used to get wrong, it helped me understand where my mistake was and taught me how to tackle a similar question easily. It was the only product I used to get my score on the test because I didn't need any other product. It contained every essential element for a very high SAT score. It was very efficient and easy to use, especially since it was very easy to use on a phone. All I needed to do was log in on my phone, and I would get the same experience as everyone else. And the best part about my experience in UWorld was that it was very cheap to use. I would imagine myself with a tutor who would steal 10 times the amount of money I paid for UWorld and would not get me the same results that UWorld did. In a nutshell, Uworld was my cheap yet very effective electronic tutor.

As you know, the SAT is a huge part of many students' admissions process, and that's no different from my own. I've spent a total of 10 months preparing for the SAT using everything from prep books to practice tests, and I've found absolutely NO resource as helpful as UWorld. I understand this may not be a convenient way of reaching out, but to whoever reads this, thank you. Thank you for giving me confidence. Thank you for helping me succeed. And thank you for being the means through which I bridge the gap between plateauing and scoring. I went from scoring in the mid-1300s to a 1460, and I'm confident in an even higher score after this August exam. Once again, I really really appreciate you guys and what you've done for students like me. I'm so glad I purchased your subscription.

UWorld helped my students improve up to 9 points in English and Reading. It is a proven ACT prep resource.

UWorld is designed to over prepare you for the exam and build your skills through harder problems. By practicing with difficult material, you get a better grasp of the concepts. Then, when you take the real SAT, it's easier to apply those concepts to questions that seem easier than what you've practiced.

UWorld is, by far, my absolute favorite company to use to study for the SAT. The explanations provided for each question are second-to-none, with textbooks from Princeton, Barron's, and the College Board for the SAT paling in comparison. The flashcard system, the average time per question, the performance bars, and most astoundingly, the overwhelming amount of available questions to practice upon are all my favorite aspects of the UWorld QBank SAT system. It's absolutely wonderful and worth every penny of my purchase. Thank you!

The UWorld SAT prep format is particularly suited to AVID students because questions can be sorted by level of difficulty, and a “hint” is available to help a student with the first step of solving a problem. Another positive for AVID students is immediate feedback. The student may see explanations for the correct answer and the incorrect answers as soon as he has responded to the question.

UWORLD is so great! They write questions nearly identical to the real SAT. They have all the types of questions you need to know, and they don't waste your time with questions that won't even be on the test. For every question you don't know, UWORLD will automatically show you the most efficient way to solve the question. I personally set aside 1 hour a day to do these problems until I had finished all the UWORLD math questions. I was able to turn my original 480 on the PSAT math section into a perfect 800 on the real SAT. I highly suggest anyone who wants their SAT score to improve check out UWORLD!

When I first started studying for the SAT, I used typical study methods like Khan Academy and the Official SAT Study Guide. Both these tools helped me find my weaknesses on the test, but they didn't help me see a large improvement in my score. When taking the SAT, it's important to focus on improving your specific weak areas, and these study materials' explanations were difficult to understand and didn't help me improve upon my mistakes.
I took the SAT in the fall of 2018 as a senior and I got 1330. I wasn't satisfied with my score and decided to try other study methods, so when I found UWorld while browsing Reddit, I decided to try it out. I only had one SAT date left before I had to turn in my college application and was desperate to improve my score. I drilled UWorld math problems and reading quizzes for a whole month, and the explanations were easy to understand. I could target specific weak areas and improve them. After only one month of using UWorld, I improved my SAT score to 1420, which was satisfactory for me. I know if I had even more time to use UWorld, I would have improved my score even more and I could not be happier with my results. I recommend it to anyone seeking substantial improvements in their score."

UWorld’s Learning Tools for AP Courses Reviews
From an educator's point of view, UWorld was user-friendly and allowed for presentation of questions for Anticipatory, Closure, and Check for Understanding activities that Albert.io does not offer. In addition, the flashcard option for students is a plus for review and exam studying.

The questions are timely. The content is not dated, nor is it difficult for the students to navigate. They appreciated the feedback and ability to break down the question types and use the explanations to help complete test corrections as a means to identify their weaknesses and work towards mastering them.

This service is pretty good, and it helps with a lot of explanations on subjects I was not confident on before.

Students could self-evaluate each unit and individualize their course reviews to address their specific knowledge gaps. Our 2021 AP Biology exam results were outstanding and [UWorld’s] resources definitely contributed to our students' success. Thank you for showing us all the ways to use this product!

I just received my AP scores, and all of my students scored at a Level 3 and above. I had a 100% pass rate. My students mentioned that using UWorld helped them prepare for the exam. While they mentioned (more so complained) that the UWorld exercises were hard, they did admit that practicing on harder items made them feel prepared for the exam and that the exam itself felt easier. I’m super pleased with my results having used UWorld for a year.

My students' scores have increased on the AP Calculus exam since I started using UWorld. I believe that the program has helped me to better prepare my students for the multiple choice sections of the exam.

We began using UWorld in AP Biology about 5 weeks before the exam. We did bell ringers of 8 questions daily. They were able to review their answers immediately, with detailed explanations. My students really enjoyed it and got a lot out of the feedback. When asked about UWorld, 100% of my students in all of my classes commented that they would prefer to use this resource over all other AP resources. As a teacher, I also found it extremely easy to use, create assessments, and collect data with. I absolutely love it. After 22 years teaching AP Biology, I feel like this is the best resource out there.

The AP stat exam may as well be called the UWorld exam. The questions in the multiple-choice were literally identical to the ones on UWorld, EVEN THE ANSWER OPTIONS WERE IN THE SAME ORDER. Honestly so glad that I didn't waste my time doing 1000 Stat questions.
