The subject exams are multiple question, short response tests. Answers must be given in simplified form (rationalized denominators, etc.); calculators are not allowed.

Five versions of the test will be offered - AB, BC, CD, DE, and EF. Each version will cover two of the appropriate courses, A/Pre-Algebra, B/First year Algebra, C/Geometry, D/Second year Algebra, E/Trigonometry and Analysis, and F/Advanced Mathematics. A student may take any examination which includes any course for which he/she is presently enrolled. The only exception to this is the EF exam which is open to any student.
