FAQ

FAQs about SAT Test Prep in La Jolla

  • What math do I need to know for the SAT?

    SAT tests math proficiency in: 

    • Algebra: Students should master solving linear and quadratic equations, working with inequalities, and understanding polynomials and exponents. 
    • Problem-Solving and Data Analysis: Focuses on interpreting charts, graphs, and solving problems involving ratios and percentages. 
    • Geometry: Requires knowledge of angles, shapes, areas, volumes, and the Pythagorean theorem, along with coordinate geometry. 
    • Trigonometry: Tests understanding of sine, cosine, and tangent ratios in right triangle problems. 
    • Advanced Math: Involves working with functions, rational expressions, radicals, and advanced polynomials. 
  • What is the difference between SAT and ACT math?

    The ACT and SAT math sections vary mainly in the subjects they cover and the format of the questions. 

    • Math Topics: The SAT math section focuses mainly on algebra and data analysis, while the ACT math section includes more geometry and trigonometry.  
    • Format: The ACT questions are usually more straightforward, while the SAT has more word problems and complex reasoning.  
    • Scoring: The SAT math section is scored from 200–800, and the ACT math section is scored on a scale of 1–36.  
    • Allotted Time: On the SAT math section, students get 1.5 minutes per question, but on the ACT, they only have 1 minute per question.  
    • Calculator Policy: The SAT allows calculators in only one section, while the ACT allows them for all math questions. 

    Students should approach and prepare for each exam, based on their strengths and preferences.

  • What is a good math score on the SAT?

    A good math score on the SAT typically depends on the schools the student is applying to. The SAT math section is scored on a scale of 200 to 800.  

    The national average score is around 500-510.  

    Generally, a score of 600-650 is considered competitive for many colleges and universities. 

    For more selective schools, a score of 700 or higher is often seen as strong. Top-tier universities may expect scores in the 750-800 range.

    If the student is aiming for merit-based scholarships, a score of 650 or above may increase their chances.
