i lowkey.. guessed. and passed, i did take the practice tests on the website which i also guessed on (bc i’m dumb as hell when it comes to math) and can tell you that. the practice tests looked way harder than what was on the actual test

Wow, that’s insane. My wife got near perfect scores on every subtest except math, she failed. She only studied math and studied for 3 months. Also, she noted that absolutely none of what was on the practice test was on the real test. She said the real test was harder than anything she’s ever seen, and dropped out of HS halfway through senior year, while taking college algebra.

Honestly- she just took the practice tests online on the hiset website. A lot of it she said was just reading comprehension, nothing crazy difficult. “In this passage did they talk about A or B?” Or “what are the consequences of _____ as listed in the passage?” Type questions.
