 SAT MATH  This section of the SAT includes two types of questions that measure knowledge in geometry, algebra, and numerical operations - multiple choice questions and grid-in questions.
The majority of math questions are multiple choice where students must pick the correct answer out of 5 possible choices. Grid-in questions, also referred to as Student-Produced Response questions, do not follow the standard multiple choice format. For grid-in questions students are required to come up with their own responses. To receive credit the grids must be filled in properly. Here SAT Coach USA works closely with students to fill in knowledge gaps in Geometry, Algebra, and Numerical Operations.
