Created by Modality, with content from The Princeton Review, the SAT® Vocab Challenge received the Editor's Choice Award from Children's Technology Review in June 2009, only a month after the launch of Volume one. Volume two became available in early September 2009 and offers another 250 vocabulary words commonly found on the SAT.

Commented Princeton Review's Senior VP-Publishing Rob Franek, "We're so excited that students can try the SAT Vocab Challenge for free and discover how to turn even a few extra minutes into a productive study session. Vocabulary building is one of the easiest, most effective ways to improve an SAT score."

Just like Volume one and two of the complete apps, this LITE version of SAT Vocab Challenge takes full advantage of the innovative Multi-Touch user interface of iPhone and iPod touch and includes the following features:

  • 25 of the most commonly tested words on the SAT, as identified by The Princeton Review's survey of past tests
  • Four distinct types of timed challenges to test you on each word's positive or negative connotation, synonyms, antonyms, and definition
  • Select answers quickly by swiping the screen or shaking the device
  • Performance is tracked by the app itself, so at any time you can see the number of terms you have mastered
  • A complete index with definition, pronunciation and part of speech for each word
