SAT Test - Math

Welcome to the SAT test math section. In this section, you will find helpful tips and advice to handle both types of problems you will find on the math section of the SAT test.

The new SAT has three math sections: 2 25-minute sections and one 20-minute section.

Each section presents both multiple-choice and 'grid-in' questions. Questions are presented in order of difficulty, by type. That means that if questions 1 through 5 are multiple choice and questions 6 through 10 are grid-ins, question 1 will be the easiest of the multiple choice questions, and question 5 the hardest; and question 6 will be the easiest grid-in, and question 10 the hardest.

A Brief Note about the SAT Test Math Section

Relax already. You haven't even reviewed any of our material and you're already hyperventilating. (We know because we're watching you. Muaaa ha ha ha ha ha.)

But seriously though, the SAT does not cover advanced calculus and they are not going to ask you for the log of pi. If you understand some basic rules of algebra and geometry and you follow our tips and advice for identifying the test's "tricks", you should do just fine. On a final note, this is not graded like a typical school test. The average student, after all, scores between 1530 and 1550 on the 2400 scale.

Now that you are Relaxed and Ready to Go...
