A lot of students immediately think of vocabulary when they hear the word SAT. But are SAT vocab words really that important for doing well on the test? Kind of. If you’re aiming for a high score, you’ll definitely want to spend some time learning key SAT words.

In this guide, we give you a comprehensive list of 262 of the most common SAT vocabulary words. We also explain how vocab is tested on the SAT, what types of questions you’ll see, and how to get the most out of your vocab prep.

The SAT underwent a significant redesign in 2016, and since then vocabulary has become a far less important part of the test. This is because there are fewer vocabulary questions on the current SAT than there were on the old SAT.

That said, it'll still benefit you to study vocab, especially if you're aiming for a high or perfect score.
All SAT words are about medium difficulty and are tested in the context of reading passages, so you’ll get not just a sentence but an entire paragraph or passage to work with.

Context clues make memorizing SAT vocab words less important on the current SAT than it was on the old SAT, back when you had to memorize dozens of obscure words and answer questions that dealt with isolated sentences (these were called Sentence Completion problems). This made vocab questions particularly hard since you were given minimal context with which to solve them.
Aside from the Reading section, are there any SAT vocab questions on the Writing and Language section? The quick answer is yes—you will see vocab questions on Writing and Language.
While most questions in this section focus on grammar, transitions, and tense, you'll also get some vocab questions that ask you to replace SAT words in a passage; we call these Precision questions. In total, you’ll get three Precision questions, making up about 7% of the SAT Writing section.

My son has never been one for tests or studying, so I was worried about his SAT’s. Ivy Bound got him excited about learning. His SAT test prep tutor was like his private athletic coach. He jumped nearly 200 points on his test and received great admissions offers. I’m enrolling my daughter next year!

Ivy Bound helped us too! Our daughter was struggling in science. The tutor, James, helped her master the material, get over her fear of science, and to trust herself and succeed. That was worth more than anything. We are so happy! Thank You!

Ivy Bound excels at teaching new SAT and ACT skills that students don’t consummately learn in school. Few schools “teach to the test” but we do. Ivy Bound teaches to the SAT and ACT unabashedly — for some students, these are the most important tests in their school lives. For many parents, the scholarships earned from a high SAT or ACT score make a huge financial difference.
Ivy Bound can work WITHIN the school’s curriculum to invoke test prep or it can work extra-curricularly, with weekend sessions or summer sessions. (We try to avoid weekday afternoons and weekday evenings — students have enough on their plates Monday-through Thursday). We put our abilities to a high demand. If a targeted SAT Prep class does not bring students an average 150 point improvement, the school or the students themselves get money back. For ACT the guarantee is a 3 point average improvement.
