The SAT will occasionally test idiomatic phrasal verbs. Some of these can be problematic to even well-prepared test-takers who are native English speakers. From various sources I have compiled a list of verbs and their corresponding prepositions/particles (only some of these are actually phrasal verbs, and only some of those are idiomatic); I have tried to include any relevant notes:
abide by
absent from
accuse of
accustomed to
agree on / agree upon / agree with / agree to
For example: We agreed on the best course of action. We agree with each other and our ideas. We agreed to give. We agreed to the plan.
afflicted with
afraid of
angry about
annoyed with / annoyed by
apologize for
apply for
approve of
argue with / argue about
For example: I argue with you about food.

compare to / compare with / compare against
Generally, the use of "with" stresses the differences between the objects of comparison, whereas the use of "to" emphasizes the similarities. Also, "with" must be used when "compare" is being used intransitively, a concept that I will cover later.
comply with
composed of
comprise
Despite being frequently used, "comprised by" and "comprised of" are not correct. "comprise" means "include."
