About the real test
- • About 115 minutes on the official test, with an on-screen calculator for most of it.
- • Roughly half the test is quantitative problem solving, half algebraic problem solving.
- • You get a formula sheet on the official test, so focus on knowing when to use each formula.
- • Calculator: available
