S = 4rr 2 is the formula for the surface area of a sphere with a radius of r.
1
V = 3 rr 2 h is the formula for a right circular cone with a radius of r and a height of h.
4
V = 3 rr 3 is the formula for a sphere with a radius of r.

V = 3 Bh is the formula for a pyramid with a base area of B and a height of h.
When choosing an answer, find the CLOSEST answer possible. If the precise numerical value that you have found is not an
answer choice, select the choice that is closest to your answer. Use the answer sheet and fill in the bubble corresponding to your
choice.
Notes: (1) You ARE permitted the use of a graphing or scientific calculator, which you may use at your own discretion. You
will also have to choose between degree or radian mode for some questions; , so keep track of what mode your
calculator is in.
(2) You may assume that figures are drawn as accurately as possible UNLESS it is explicitly stated that a figure is
not drawn to scale. Further, all figures are in a plane UNLESS it is stated otherwise.
(3) For any function f, unless otherwise specified, you may assume that a real number x is in the domain of f if and
only if f (x) is a real number. The range of f consists of all and only those real numbers of the form f (x), where x
is in the domain of f.
(4) Four formulas are provided in the box above for your reference.

Raw Scores
To score your test, first use the answer key to mark each of your responses right or wrong. Then, calculate your raw score
for each section by adding the number of correct responses to one fourth the number of incorrect responses. Use the tables
below to help you calculate your scores:
Raw Score
Scaled Scores
Once you have found your raw score for each test, convert it into an approximate scaled test score using the following chart.
To find a scaled test score for each section, find the row in the Raw Score column which corresponds to your raw score for that
section, then check the column for the section you are scoring in the same row. For example, if you had a raw score of 31, your
scaled score would be 580. Keep in mind that these scaled scores are estimates only. Your actual SAT Subject Test in
Mathematics Level 2 score will be scaled against the scores of all other students at your grade level taking the test on your test
date.
