SAT Math Test
The SAT Math Test includes both calculator and non-calculator sections. The calculator section will continue the SAT’s legacy of a strong emphasis on Algebra 2 topics like functions and graphing. There will be a new emphasis on classroom topics like trigonometry. The test will feature fewer pure logic questions and place a heavier emphasis on computation.
The non-calculator section will test a battery of math skills including problem recognition, computation, and carry-out. Students must quickly recognize which type of question they are facing (algebraic, geometric, etc…), and solve the problem without making any careless mistakes.
The new SAT Math Test more closely aligns with the data analysis skills that students need for college courses. The essential data analysis skills include a full understanding of slope, lines of best fit, and basic regression analysis. In addition to graphs, students will analyze data displayed in charts and encounter more practically based math questions like those concerning exchange rates.
TSG places a strong emphasis both on problem recognition and flawless computation skills. We encourage our top students to attempt many problem sets sans-calculator. This methodology builds confidence and ability. Beyond computation, we expose students to the many types of graphs and charts that they will be required to analyze on the new SAT test.
