SAT II Math Preparation Books
Purpose of the SAT II Mathematics test level 1 and level 2: Measure knowledge of mathematics through the first three years of college-preparatory mathematics for Level 1 and through precalculus for Level 2.
Format of the SAT II Mathematics test level 1 and level 2: 50 multiple-choice questions. Questions covering content typically taught in the first three years (for Level 1) or four years (for Level 2) of college-preparatory mathematics (Students are not expected to have studied every topic on either test.)
Recommended Preparation for the SAT II Mathematics test
Level 1: Three years of college-preparatory mathematics, including two years of algebra and one year of geometry.
Level 2: More than three years of college-preparatory mathematics, including two years of algebra, one year of geometry, and elementary functions (precalculus) and/or trigonometry. If you have had preparation in trigonometry and elementary functions and have attained grades of B or better in these courses, select Level 2. If you are sufficiently prepared to take Level 2 but take Level 1 in hopes of receiving a higher score, you may not do as well as you expect.
Score: Total score: 200–to–800 scale.
Because the content measured by the two tests differs considerably, you cannot use your score on one test to predict your score on the other or to compare scores.
Geometric Figures
Figures that accompany problems are intended to provide information useful in solving the problems. They are drawn as accurately as possible EXCEPT when it is stated in a particular problem that the figure is not drawn to scale. Even when figures are not drawn to scale, the relative positions of points and angles may be assumed to be in the order shown. Also, line segments that extend through points and appear to lie on the same line may be assumed to be on the same line. The text “Note: Figure not drawn to scale.” is included on the figure when degree measures may not be accurately shown and specific lengths may not be drawn proportionally.
