thanks for asking... i wonder the same

@ Sallywoo - Right?! Just trying to budget my study time accordingly.

Experts? Tutors? Past test takers? Anyone have a rough guess?

Thanks!

4 to 6 questions out of the 37 is the general range. So about 15%.

However keep in mind that these are questions that can take forever if you do not have the proper technique so studying geometry is worth even a bit more than the 15%.

thanks, David! what about coordinate geometry? do i need to know parabolas and all that scary stuff?

Coordinate geometry is more about straight lines usually (y = mx + b) or points on the x, y coordinate system.

However, it is good to know that a parabola comes from the fact that if you have a squared term, (x squared or y squared) then this means you will have two points on one axis for each point on the other. So parabolas are not common but you will just want to know what type of equation causes them.

No need for coordinate geometry to be that scary since it is limited in scope. In fact, all of geometry is a bit limited to common shapes and formulas.
