42 question banks, 8,805 questions. Every multiple-choice item is written with a full rationale, and every bank is free to sample without an account.
Close-reading sets on the assigned canon: Shakespeare, the nineteenth-century novel, modernism, Greek tragedy and the American classics. Questions here work at the level of text rather than plot summary — they ask about a specific passage, image or turn of phrase, and the rationales point back to the lines that settle the reading.

Each bank is built from the published content outline for its exam, so its chapters match the domains the exam actually reports on. Multiple-choice items state the controlling principle in the rationale rather than simply naming the credited answer, and distractors are written to fail for a specific, identifiable reason.
