SAT I: Sample Test 12
Math, Critical Reading, and Writing
Time: The exam is 3 hours and 20 minutes long. There are nine sections in this exam.
You will have 25 minutes to work on six of the sections, 20 minutes to work on two
sections, and 10 minutes to work on one of the sections. Section 4 was not
released by the College Board and is not included in this test. Section 4 does not
count toward your score.
Scoring:
• For each multiple-choice question you answer correctly you will receive
one point (whether the question is easy or hard).
• For questions you omit, you will receive no points.
• For wrong answers to multiple-choice questions, you will lose one-quarter
of a point.
• For a wrong answer to a “grid-in” math question, you don’t lose any points.
• The essay is scored on a scale from 1 to 6 by two different readers. The
total essay score is the sum of the two reader’s scores.
Guessing: An educated guess may improve your score. That is, if you can eliminate one or
more choices as wrong, you increase your chances of choosing the correct
answer and earning one point. On the other hand, if you can’t eliminate any
choices, omit the question and move on.
Answers: You may write in this test, but mark all answers on your answer sheet to receive
credit. Make each mark a dark mark that completely fills the oval and is as dark as
all your other marks. If you erase, do so completely.
DO NOT OPEN THE TEST UNTIL YOU ARE TOLD TO DO SO!
