Practice Test
This is a practice test using sample CAHSEE questions to help you prepare for the
CAHSEE. Answer all the questions in the practice test and then check your answers using
the ANSWER KEY provided in the back.
When you take the actual CAHSEE, it will be separated into two sessions. Each session will
contain 46 multiple-choice questions. Remember that you may take as much time as you need
within the regular school day, and you will have a break between Sessions 1 and 2.
This practice test is designed to familiarize you with the CAHSEE test format and the
possible types of items you might see on the real test. Since this practice test contains only
a few samples of each standard, it cannot be used to accurately predict how you will
perform on the CAHSEE.
Becoming familiar with the test may be helpful, but the absolute best way to do well on the
mathematics portion of the test is to pay close attention in your math class, ask questions of
others when you dont understand something, and complete all your homework. Learning
mathematics, like learning another language, requires practice and repetition.
