The HiSET Math Exam allows students who did not earn a high school diploma to prove that they have the quantitative skills of somebody who has. It covers a substantial portion of the high school mathematics curriculum, so you might need to study hard to reach your academic goals. If you're preparing for this exam, Varsity Tutors can connect you with a professional HiSET Mathematics tutor who can help guide your preparation.
The following concepts appear on the exam, so they'll be the focus of your HiSET Math tutoring sessions:
- Algebraic Concepts (45%) - Graphing, Expressions, Equations
- Numbers and Operations on Numbers (19%) - Rounding, Correctly converting numbers to another format
- Data Analysis, Probability, and Statistics (18%) - Problem-solving strategies, data interpretation
- Measurement and Geometry (18%) - Shapes, Area, Volume
The exam consists of approximately 50 multiple-choice questions over a 90-minute testing period, so using your time wisely is an important part of HiSET Math prep. One common mistake is to rely on your reference table and scientific calculator too extensively, as using these resources can waste valuable time. Your HiSET Mathematics tutor can teach you what you need to know to avoid using them on every question, while also helping you use them more effectively when needed.
