 SAT Chemistry
Chemistry SAT Subjects Test – Chemistry assesses the understanding of general chemistry at the college preparatory level. The duration of the test is one hour. Purpose: SAT Subjects Test – Chemistry measures the understanding of chemistry at a level suitable for college preparation, independent of the particular textbook used or instructional approach |
| Format : SAT Subjects Test – Chemistry follows the following given format. - 85 multiple-choice questions.
- Approximately five questions on equation balancing and/or predicting products of chemical reactions; these are distributed among the various content categories.
- Questions cover topics emphasized in most high school courses; because of course differences most students will find that there are some questions on topics with which they are not familiar.
Questions may require to - Recall and understand the major concepts of chemistry and to apply the principles to solve specific problems in chemistry.
- Organize and interpret results obtained by observation and experimentation and to draw conclusions or make inferences from experimental data, including data presented in graphic and/or tabular form.
