<p>Hello, I'm currently a high school sophomore and I just wanted to know what the average SAT math score was for a geometry student since I can't seem to find this information anywhere online. The reason I want to find out is because I want to compare my PSAT math score to others who are also in geometry. Also, does anyone know the average Algebra II student's SAT math score? Thanks,</p>
<p>BTW, I got a 610 with mathematics knowledge up to geometry.</p>
<p>Depends on how well you know the material…with alg. 2/geometry knowledge, you have the ability to score 800.</p>
<p>I got a B (87%) in Algebra and a A (100%) last semester in Geometry.
So, I know the material pretty well!</p>
<p>Then you can aim for 800!</p>
<p>Basically you want to work quickly enough so that you can answer every question without making silly mistakes. That usually takes practice and good organization (if you’re more organized with your work, you’re less likely to make sign errors, etc.)</p>
<p>Also helps to learn some basic number theory if you haven’t already. A lot of SAT number theory problems can easily be solved using modular arithmetic and no algebra.</p>
<p>I have a B in Geometry now, and a 730 on the SAT from last year, when I took Algebra II (my grade was an A-). This year’s scores will come in two days, so I’ll get back to you.</p>
<p>I got a 740(ish) the summer after the school year (8th grade) in which I took geometry. You honestly don’t need much geometry to be successful on SAT math. Basically you need to know about angles and traversals, angles in polygons, basic congruency/similarity.</p>
<p>^Don’t worry if you forgot about SAS and SSA and the angle bisector theorem and Euclid and blah blah blah.</p>
<p>Well Euclid was pretty important…lol.</p>
<p>I don’t recall the SAT testing similiarity/congruence theorems…if they do, all you need to know is that SAS, SSS, ASA, HL etc. (but not SSA) imply congruence, and any of the above plus AAA can be used to show similarity.</p>
<p>If you don’t remember, it’s fairly intuitive. Just ask yourself, “is a triangle with sides 5, 7, and a 58 deg angle between them uniquely determined?” The answer is yes. However, a triangle ABC with AB = 5, BC = 7, and angle C = 58 deg is NOT uniquely determined (this can be shown by drawing BC, angle C, and seeing that A can be one of two points).</p>
<p>^Or, you could remember that SSA backwards is a, um, donkey.</p>
<p>Okay the results are in. I got a 710, which is 20 points lower than last year (although my CR and W jumped around 100 points). It’s not a bad score- I will update again when I can see which type of questions I missed.</p>
<p>Thanks everyone for your responses!!</p>
