SAT Exam Maths Syllabus 2024
● The SAT exam Maths syllabus is almost identical to the high school topics. This
section of the SAT includes a total of 44 questions. Through the SAT, the accessors
evaluate candidates understanding of the topics they have already covered in their
high school years. In India, High School is equivalent to Class 10. So a Class 10
student who has scored more than 90% or equivalent can easily score well in his/ her
SAT.
● However, the students must practice regularly to understand the exam syllabus and
pattern better. The SAT Exam Math Syllabus mainly covers 4 topics. These are
Algebra, Advanced Mathematics, Problem Solving and Data Analysis, and Geometry
and Trigonometry. The table below discusses the entire SAT exam maths syllabus
in detail.
