SAT Test Outline
The digital SAT is composed of two sections: Reading and Writing and Math. Students have 64 minutes to complete the Reading and Writing section and 70 minutes to complete the Math section for a total of 2 hours and 14 minutes.
Each section is divided into 2 equal length modules, and there is a 10-minute break between the Reading and Writing section and the Math section. The first module of each section contains a broad mix of easy, medium, and hard questions. Based on how students perform on the first module, the second module of questions will either be more difficult or less difficult.
Reading & Writing
Number of Questions/Tasks: 54
Time Allotted: 64 minutes (two 32-minute modules)
The questions on the Reading and Writing section fall into four content domains:
Information and Ideas:
Measures comprehension, analysis, and reasoning skills and knowledge and the ability to locate, interpret, evaluate, and integrate information and ideas from texts and informational graphics (tables, bar graphs, and line graphs).
Craft and Structure:
Measures the comprehension, vocabulary, analysis, synthesis, and reasoning skills and knowledge needed to understand and use high-utility words and phrases in context, evaluate texts rhetorically, and make connections between topically related texts.
Expression of Ideas:
Measures the ability to revise texts to improve the effectiveness of written expression and to meet specific rhetorical goals.
Standard English Conventions:
Measures the ability to edit text to conform to core conventions of Standard English sentence structure, usage, and punctuation.
Math
Number of Questions/Tasks: 44
Time Allotted: 70 minutes (two 35-minute modules)
The four types of math you’ll see on the SAT Math section are listed below.
Algebra:
- Linear equations in 1 variable
- Linear equations in 2 variables
- Linear functions
- Systems of 2 linear equations in 2 variables
- Linear inequalities in 1 or 2 variables
Advanced Math:
- Equivalent expressions
- Nonlinear equations in 1 variable
- Systems of equations in 2 variables
- Nonlinear functions
Problem-Solving and Data Analysis:
- Ratios, rates, proportional relationships, and units
- Percentages
- One-variable data: distributions and measures of center and spread
- Two-variable data: models and scatterplots
- Probability and conditional probability
- Inference from sample statistics and margin of error
- Evaluating statistical claims: observational studies and experiments
Geometry and Trigonometry:

- Lines, angles, and triangles
- Right triangles and trigonometry
- Circles
WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT US
“I chose to seek a tutor after I experienced in the classroom that my teacher was not explaining the math concepts in a way I understood. Also, I wanted to excel beyond my grade level so I would be more prepared for future concepts and standardized exams I would be facing. Upon starting with Ms. Jen I was very pleased because all of my previous conflicts were resolved. I understood all the concepts that I had trouble with before. This was because she always explained content in a different way than anyone else, and I picked up on her teaching very quickly. After my parents hired Ms. Jen, I accomplished my goal of exceeding my grade level. My middle school math teacher would cover a new topic and I was completely familiar with it. Deciding on Ms. Jen with “Making the Grade” has been a great investment and I am looking forward to returning to Ms. Jen for a fifth year.”
