want to know what you\u2019re going to see when you take the sat? i\u2019m going to break down exactly how many of each kind of question there\u2019ll be on your test so you know what to expect and what to practice most. make sure to follow some of the links in this post to get a better idea of what these question types actually look like. let\u2019s divide them up by the sat\u2019s main topics.<\/p>\n

there are a total of 58 math questions on the sat math test<\/a>: 20 in the \u201cno calculator\u201d math section<\/a>, and 38 on the portion of sat math where you can use a calculator. there are two general types of math questions, multiple-choice and grid-in.<\/p>\n

multiple-choice: <\/i>45 math questions give you possible answers, so you\u2019ll have lots and lots of chances to use process of elimination.<\/p>\n

grid-in questions: <\/i>there are a total of 13 grid-in questions between the two sections of math on the sat. you come up with the answer on your own and bubble it in:<\/p>\n
