Need to study for the SAT Math section but don't know where to start? On a budget, too? Not to worry! In this article, we've put together a comprehensive list of all the best (and free!) SAT Math study materials and guides currently available online.

Note: For info on the best SAT study materials you have to pay for, check out our picks for top SAT prep books.

The Importance of Using High-Quality SAT Math Materials

It is incredibly important to get your study materials from the right places. The SAT is a very specific kind of test, and there are many (many!) websites and programs out there that, sadly, offer only poor-quality SAT resources.

If you study using mainly inferior SAT materials, you won't get a clear sense as to how you'll do on test day. Test prep is about assessing and improving upon your current level, but you won't be able to do this if you get a false sense of your skills based on poor study materials. Ultimately, products and test questions that don't accurately reflect the SAT are a waste of time.

Therefore, it's best to prioritize official SAT materials. The SAT is designed by the College Board, and their free materials are by far the best place to start studying. From here, you can branch off into programs and materials that use (or closely resemble) official SAT material.

Now, let's look at the best resources you can use for free official SAT Math practice questions.

Top 5 Free Resources for Quality SAT Math Practice

In this section, we go over the top five free resources you can use for quality SAT Math prep.

#1: The College Board

As the creator and issuer of the SAT, the College Board is the best place to begin for collecting your free SAT Math study materials. The official website offers full-length SAT practice tests and practice questions for all sections.

The closest you can get to taking the actual SAT is the free, full-length  practice exams in Bluebook , College Board’s online testing platform.  The six available practice tests provide you with a sneak peek of the interface, format, and scoring of the online test, so they’re a useful tool as you prepare for the digital format.

In addition to full-length exams, Bluebook also offers previews of individual questions from the actual SAT. Even these are useful as you’re trying out the digital interface and learning what kinds of math problems to expect.

Note that if you have testing accommodations that allow you to take the test on paper, you'll want to practice on the  the official, printable practice tests  created for the digital SAT. 

Old Official Full-Length SAT Practice Tests

While the newest practice tests will be most useful for your prep, you can also use these old (pre-digital) SAT practice tests, though keep in mind there will be differences 

There are 10 official practice tests from the 2016-2023 version of the SAT. Each test comes with an answer key and in-depth answer explanations to help you understand why you got questions wrong.

Although the general format of these tests is quite different, the individual math questions will be fairly similar to what you'll see on the digital SAT. Just keep in mind that they should be used for practicing skills and concepts rather than estimating your score.

body_choice-2

#2: Khan Academy

Khan Academy is a nonprofit and partner of the College Board that offers a free online SAT prep program and practice questions.

While most of the questions come from official SAT practice materials (such as those linked above), others have been created or adapted with approval from or in tandem with the College Board itself.

Sign up for a free Khan Academy account to get access to SAT study questions and materials, complete with guides and explanation videos to aid your studying.

#4: CrackSAT.net

CrackSAT is a free, unofficial SAT website offering PDFs of official SAT practice tests and an array of both official and unofficial SAT Math questions.

Many of the questions on CrackSAT come from SAT prep books by well-known test-prep companies including The Princeton Review and Kaplan. Though generally solid, unofficial SAT questions can vary wildly in quality, so don't rely on only these to give you a sense of your math abilities. Rather, it's best to use this website after you've exhausted all the official SAT resources above.

What's especially nice about this website is its organization: math questions are available in both multiple-choice and grid-in categories to give you the full range of math practice. You can also browse problems by concept (e.g., linear functions , exponents and radicals , etc.).

How to Use SAT Math Study Materials Effectively: 6 Tips

It's just as important to know how to best utilize your SAT study materials as it is to know how to access them. These six tips will help you achieve your highest SAT Math score on test day.

#1: Take a Full Practice Test in One Sitting

You're probably most concerned about your SAT Math score, but it's still important to take a full SAT practice test so you can see how you'll fare on test day. Although answering one or two Math questions might not be too much of a challenge for you, in truth the SAT is a marathon—and if you aren't prepared, you'll likely be exhausted by the end of it. And exhaustion can lead anyone to make mistakes!

So before you dedicate your focus to the SAT Math section, take an official SAT practice test on the Bluebook app to see how your Math score fits into the larger test-taking picture. Make sure to take the whole test in one sitting; this will help you build endurance for test day.

#2: Use Proper Timing and Pace Yourself

As you take SAT practice tests and any Math-specific sections, be sure to use the same time limits you'll have on test day.

The chart below shows how much time you'll have on each SAT section as well as how much time you should (approximately) spend per question. Note that each section is split into two modules of equal lengths.

You'll have about 9 5 seconds per SAT Math question. Some questions might take you less or more time, but keep practicing so that you're not consistently spending too long on a single math question.

Remember that accuracy is only half the battle—you have to actually finish the questions within the time limits if you want to get a high Math score!

That said, don't worry if you run out of time while taking your first SAT practice test. This is completely normal and gives you a starting point from which you can later improve.

#3: Review Your Mistakes

It's one thing to take an SAT Math test, but you also need to look over your results and identify any patterns in your correct and incorrect answers. Do you tend to get the last few questions wrong on each Math section? Do function questions just seem to throw you for a loop?

First, figure out what went wrong. Then, see how you can pick up some easy points and diligently target those areas in your prep. (Remember that each Math question, no matter its difficulty, is worth the same number of points!)

#4: Target Your Biggest Weaknesses

Once you've pinpointed patterns in the errors you make, it's time to dig deeper and examine your biggest weaknesses. Your ultimate goal will be to tailor your studying so that you can focus on improving the areas you struggle with the most.

Since your overall objective is to answer as many questions as accurately as possible, you'll want to dedicate the majority of your study time to improving your weaknesses, rather than to reviewing material you already know well.

Refreshing your known material again and again might make you feel productive and confident, but it doesn't do a whole lot to improve your score. Your best bet is to focus on your problem areas by practicing and expanding your knowledge base.

#5: Set a Study Schedule

Don't be tempted to cram right before the test . You might have a busy schedule and feel as if your only option is to cram for the SAT, but improvement really happens over time. We generally advise giving yourself at least three to six months to study for the SAT.

If you don't have a lot of time left before test day, however, don't give up! No matter how much time you've got for studying, it is possible to come up with a balanced SAT study plan .

First, calculate the amount of time you have before your test date . (For example, say you've got a month before your test .)

Next, assign yourself at least three full practice tests (in addition to your normal study materials) and spread them out over the course of your study schedule. If you only have a week or so before test day, this probably won't be possible. In this case, try to fit in at least one or two practice tests wherever you can.

Nothing else replicates the SAT experience like a full practice test does, so don't underestimate its importance in your prep!

#6: Not Seeing Any Improvement? Get Additional Prep Help

Some students prefer to do all of their SAT studying by themselves, but others work better with a little guidance.

If the SAT subject matter just isn't making sense to you or you need help prioritizing your time, an SAT tutor or prep program (or both!) are excellent options to try. Both can give you that final push you need to stay focused and maximize your SAT Math score.

At PrepScholar, we offer expert SAT tutoring services in addition to a fully customizable SAT prep program . For more info, read our guides on how to find the best SAT tutor for you and how much you should spend on tutoring .

How to easily make your own math word problems & word problems worksheets

Two teachers are discussing math with a pen and a notebook

Armed with 120 examples to spark ideas, making your own math word problems can engage your students and ensure alignment with lessons. Do:

  • Link to Student Interests:  By framing your word problems with student interests, you’ll likely grab attention. For example, if most of your class loves American football, a measurement problem could involve the throwing distance of a famous quarterback.
  • Make Questions Topical:  Writing a word problem that reflects current events or issues can engage students by giving them a clear, tangible way to apply their knowledge.
  • Include Student Names:  Naming a question’s characters after your students is an easy way make subject matter relatable, helping them work through the problem.
  • Be Explicit:  Repeating keywords distills the question, helping students focus on the core problem.
  • Test Reading Comprehension:  Flowery word choice and long sentences can hide a question’s key elements. Instead, use concise phrasing and grade-level vocabulary.
  • Focus on Similar Interests:  Framing too many questions with related interests -- such as football and basketball -- can alienate or disengage some students.
  • Feature Red Herrings:  Including unnecessary information introduces another problem-solving element, overwhelming many elementary students.

A key to differentiated instruction , word problems that students can relate to and contextualize will capture interest more than generic and abstract ones.

Final thoughts about math word problems

You’ll likely get the most out of this resource by using the problems as templates, slightly modifying them by applying the above tips. In doing so, they’ll be more relevant to -- and engaging for -- your students.

Regardless, having 120 curriculum-aligned math word problems at your fingertips should help you deliver skill-building challenges and thought-provoking assessments.

The result?

A greater understanding of how your students process content and demonstrate understanding, informing your ongoing teaching approach.

Math Word Problems

Welcome to the math word problems worksheets page at Math-Drills.com! On this page, you will find Math word and story problems worksheets with single- and multi-step solutions on a variety of math topics including addition, multiplication, subtraction, division and other math topics. It is usually a good idea to ensure students already have a strategy or two in place to complete the math operations involved in a particular question. For example, students may need a way to figure out what 7 × 8 is or have previously memorized the answer before you give them a word problem that involves finding the answer to 7 × 8.

There are a number of strategies used in solving math word problems; if you don't have a favorite, try the Math-Drills.com problem-solving strategy:

  • Question : Understand what the question is asking. What operation or operations do you need to use to solve this question? Ask for help to understand the question if you can't do it on your own.
  • Estimate : Use an estimation strategy, so you can check your answer for reasonableness in the evaluate step. Try underestimating and overestimating, so you know what range the answer is supposed to be in. Be flexible in rounding numbers if it will make your estimate easier.
  • Strategize : Choose a strategy to solve the problem. Will you use mental math, manipulatives, or pencil and paper? Use a strategy that works for you. Save the calculator until the evaluate stage.
  • Calculate : Use your strategy to solve the problem.
  • Evaluate : Compare your answer to your estimate. If you under and overestimated, is the answer in the correct range. If you rounded up or down, does the answer make sense (e.g. is it a little less or a little more than the estimate). Also check with a calculator.
