Review your math skills as necessary The SAT problem solving questions are equally split among arithmetic, algebra, and geometry. If you have not taken calculus, or statistics, don't worry. These questions are not asked on the SAT1. See our books section for suggestions if you feel the need to review the math concepts covered in the problem solving section. A note about the reference data You may know by now that
the SAT test writers will give you some of the common formulas in the test book
such as the area of a triangle, Pythagorean relationship, etc. Do NOT place too
much emphasis on these reference formulas. If your math skills are rusty, you
will still want to do a review on your own before the exam. There are many other
helpful hints you should know such as an odd number multiplied by another odd
number always equals an odd number, etc. |
