There is one scored math section consisting of 14 quantitative
comparisons and 14 problem solving questions, of which 3 or 4
will be graph questions. If your experimental section is also
quantitative, you will have two quantitative sections, only one
of which will be scored.
Quantitative Comparisons
Quantitative comparisons do not require you to solve for a
particular value; rather they ask you to compare two quantities
and try to determine which, if either, is larger. Each
quantitative comparison displays two mathematical expressions in
boxes—one in Column A and one in Column B. Sometimes additional
information is provided.
Problem Solving
Problem solving questions test various math concepts, including
percentages, simultaneous equations, symbolism, special
triangles, multiple and odd-ball figures, mean, median, mode,
range, and probability. Several problem solving questions test
your ability to read graphs, interpret data, and solve math
problems. When working with graphs, first look carefully at the
data and understand how it's presented. Read the titles and check
the scales to see how the information is measured and watch for
any accompanying notes.
