The ASSET test consists of two parts: Basic Skills, and Advanced Mathematics. The first part consists of three sections-reading, writing, and numerical reasoning. The Advanced Mathematics is separated into four tests-elementary algebra, intermediate algebra, college algebra, and geometry. Except for college algebra, the tests cover math skills acquired in high school. All questions are multiple-choice. The tests are taken with pencil and paper, and calculators are allowed for the Advanced Mathematics portion. Here are the sections on the ASSET Test:
