Modules
Two math modules:
Each module is 35 minutes long, with 22 questions (1:35 per question)75% multiple choice (33 questions), 25% student produced response (11 questions)30% in-context word problems (≤ 50 words)Progressive difficulty (easiest first, hardest last)Calculators are allowed – but don't use a handheld – learn to use Desmos, insteadQuestions from each topic area appear in each module
