  3. Fråga 3 av 16

    What is special about Part I of the CAEC Mathematics test?
    Visa svar

    Svar: B. You must work without a calculator

    Part I is called "No Calculator". It checks that you can work with fractions, decimals, percentages and integers by hand.

  4. Fråga 4 av 16

    How is Part I of the Mathematics test set up?
    Visa svar

    Svar: B. 12 questions in 30 minutes

    Part I (no calculator) has 12 questions and 30 minutes. Part II (calculator) has 30 questions and 90 minutes.

  5. Fråga 5 av 16

    What is the minimum score you need to pass a CAEC test?
    Visa svar

    Svar: B. 55%

    The minimum passing score for every CAEC test is 55%.

  6. Fråga 6 av 16

    What do you need to do to earn the CAEC?
    Visa svar

    Svar: B. Pass all five subject tests (or meet the PLAR rules for some of them)

    You must pass each of the five tests, or meet Prior Learning and Achievement Recognition (PLAR) requirements. An average is not enough.

  7. Fråga 7 av 16

    You score 82% on a CAEC test. Which level is that?
    Visa svar

    Svar: C. Exceeds minimum standard

    80–100% is "Exceeds minimum standard". 55–79% is "Meets minimum standard".

  8. Fråga 8 av 16

    You score 50% on the Mathematics test. What does that mean?
    Visa svar

    Svar: B. Approaching minimum standard, so you must retake the test

    40–54% is "Approaching minimum standard". Any score under 55% needs a retake.

  9. Fråga 9 av 16

    How often may you write the same CAEC subject test?
    Visa svar

    Svar: A. Once per calendar month, up to 3 times per calendar year

    You may write a subject test once per calendar month and up to 3 times per calendar year. You cannot rewrite a test you passed. Some provinces add their own rules.

  10. Fråga 10 av 16

    Which of these is on the CAEC Mathematics formula sheet?
    Visa svar

    Svar: D. Simple interest

    The formula sheet covers perimeter, area, surface area, volume, distance, simple interest, probability and the Pythagorean theorem. You must know metric conversions and the mean yourself.

  11. Fråga 11 av 16

    A test question asks you to change feet into metres. What should you expect?
    Visa svar

    Svar: B. The question will give you the conversion rate

    Imperial and U.S. units come with the conversion rate in the question. Metric (SI) conversions are not given, so learn them.

  12. Fråga 12 av 16

    Part II has 30 questions in 90 minutes. On average, how long can you spend on each question?
    Visa svar

    Svar: A. 3 minutes

    90 ÷ 30 = 3 minutes per question. Keep an eye on the clock and skip a hard question to come back later.

  13. Fråga 13 av 16

    You add three bills: $19.85, $40.10 and $29.95. Which estimate is the best quick check of your answer?
    Visa svar

    Svar: D. About $90

    Round each bill: $20 + $40 + $30 = $90. The exact total is $89.90, so the estimate confirms it.

  14. Fråga 14 av 16

    A question gives the length and width of a room in metres and asks for the floor area. What unit should your answer have?
    Visa svar

    Svar: A. Square metres (m²)

    Area is length × width, so metres × metres gives square metres.

  15. Fråga 15 av 16

    You work out that a family's weekly grocery bill is $2,450. What is the best next step?
    Visa svar

    Svar: B. Check your work, because the answer looks far too large

    Always ask if an answer is reasonable. A weekly grocery bill near $2,450 is very unlikely, so look for a decimal or operation error.

  16. Fråga 16 av 16

    About how long after the test can you usually see your Mathematics result?
    Visa svar

    Svar: A. About 2 business days

    Reading, Mathematics, Science and Social Studies results take about 2 business days. Writing takes about 20 business days.

Vanliga frågor

Is this the official CAEC Mathematics test?

No. This is an independent practice course. It is not run by the CAEC Testing Service or any province or territory, and your scores here are not CAEC results.

What does the certificate from this course show?

The certificate of completion shows that you finished this practice course and scored at least 80% on its final assessment. It is not the CAEC, not a high school equivalency and not an official result, so schools and employers will not accept it in place of the CAEC.

Why is the pass mark 80% here when the CAEC needs 55%?

The real test needs 55% on each test. We set a higher bar so that a pass here is a good sign you are ready, not just close.

Can I use a calculator on the CAEC Mathematics test?

Only in Part II. Part I (12 questions) must be done without a calculator. Graphing calculators are not allowed. Practise the Part I lesson and quiz without a calculator.

Where do I register for the CAEC?

Rules such as minimum age, fees and testing centres are set by each province or territory, so start with your provincial or territorial CAEC page. You then create an account on the CAEC digital platform and book your test at a testing centre.

What happens to my old GED® results?

Completed GED® credentials stay valid. If you passed 2002-series Canadian GED® tests, those results can count toward the CAEC through PLAR for a limited time (until December 2027, according to the Government of Alberta; check the date with your province or territory). You must also complete at least one CAEC test.

Är intyget ackrediterat eller officiellt erkänt?

Nej. Det är ett privat kursintyg, bara för dina kunskaper. Det är inte erkänt, ackrediterat eller godkänt av någon myndighet, tillståndsmyndighet, tillsynsmyndighet eller utbildningsinstitution, och det ersätter inte någon licens, certifiering eller utbildning som krävs enligt lag.
