    LESSONS IN THIS CHAPTER Lesson 1-1Getting Acquainted with the Redesigned SAT Lesson 1-2Multiple-Choice Questions Lesson 1-3Grid-In Questions OVERVIEW The March 2016 SAT test date marks the first administration of a redesigned SAT. The mathematics content of the new version of the test will be more closely aligned to what you studied in your high school math classes. The redesigned SAT is a timed exam lasting 3 hours (or 3 hours and 50 minutes with an optional essay). What Does the SAT Measure? The math sections of the new SAT seek to measure a students understanding of and ability to apply those mathematics concepts and skills that are most closely related to successfully pursuing college study and career training. Why Do Colleges Require the SAT? College admissions officers know that the students who apply to their colleges come from a wide variety of high schools that may have different grading systems, curricula, and academic standards. SAT scores make it possible for colleges to compare the course preparation and the performances of applicants by using a common academic yardstick.

    Your SAT score, together with your high school grades and other information you or your high school may be asked to provide, helps college admission officers to predict your chances of success in the college courses you will take. How Have the SAT Math Sections Changed? Here are five key differences between the math sections of the SAT given before 2016 and the SAT for 2016 and beyond: There is no penalty for wrong answers. Multiple-choice questions have four (A to D) rather than five (A to E) answer choices. Calculators are permitted on only one of the two math sections. There is less emphasis on arithmetic reasoning and a greater emphasis on algebraic reasoning with more questions based on real-life scenarios and data. New Math Topics Beginning with the 2016 SAT, these additional math topics will now be required: Manipulating more complicated algebraic expressions including completing the square within a quadratic expression.

    For example, the circle equation x 2 + y 2 + 4 x 10 y = 7 can be rewritten in the more convenient center-radius form as ( x + 2)2 + ( y 5)2 = 36 by completing the square for both variables. Performing operations involving the imaginary unit i where i = Picture 5. Solving more complex equations including quadratic equations with a leading coefficient greater than 1 as well as nonfactorable quadratic equations. Working with trigonometric functions of general angles measured in radians as well as degrees. Table 1.1 summarizes the major differences between the math sections of the previous and newly redesigned SATs. TIP If you dont know an answer to a n SAT Math question, make an educated guess! There is no point penalty for a wrong answer on the redesigned SAT.

    You get points for the questions you answer correctly but do not lose points for any wrong answers. Table 1.1 Comparing Old and New SAT Math
