It's annoying at the start but helps. One thing though, is that there should be a section to disable math questions/reading questions for people that don't need math/reading help. For example, I average 790 in math (often due to a silly mistake) and don't really need any math help, so having to spend extra time on math (which I would much rather spend on reading/grammar) sucks... Otherwise great extension!

I've been using FlashySurf for a few months now and it's honestly been a game changer for my SAT prep. As someone who struggles to set aside dedicated study time, having these practice questions pop up while I'm just browsing Instagram or watching YouTube has helped me learn so much vocabulary and math concepts without feeling like I'm studying. The explanations are really clear, and I love how I can adjust how often the cards appear. My practice test scores have gone up by almost 100 points already
