The GED Mathematical Reasoning test measures both algebraic and quantitative problem-solving skills and requires a test taker to demonstrate an understanding of mathematical concepts, the skill to use those concepts, and the ability to apply knowledge in real-world scenarios.
The exam is broken down into four reporting categories:
Reporting Categories |
Percentage of Total Test |
Quantitative Problem Solving with Rational Numbers |
25% |
Quantitative Problem Solving in Measurement |
20% |
Algebraic Problem Solving with Expressions and Equations |
30% |
Algebraic Problem Solving with Graphs and Functions |
25% |
Like all GED tests, the GED Mathematical Reasoning test is a computer-delivered exam that must be taken at an official testing center or with online proctoring in a location of your choice. The exam has two sections; the first has 5 questions that prohibits calculator usage, but you may use a calculator on the second. The sections are not timed individually; you will have 115 minutes to complete the entire test. The test makeup is 55% of Algebraic topics. There are a total of 36 questions on the test. You will need a score of at least 145 to pass the test.
Within the test, you will encounter several types of questions, including fill-in-the-blank, drag-and-drop, and multiple-choice.
