How the PSAT 10 Is Structured
The PSAT 10 takes 2 hours and 14 minutes and consists of two sections: (1) the Reading and Writing section, and (2) the Math section. Most of the questions are multiple choice, though some math questions ask you to write in the answer rather than select it.
The following table shows how much time you get for each section and the number of questions for each test:
| Section | Length (minutes) | Number of Questions/Tasks |
|---|---|---|
| Reading and Writing | 64 | 54 |
| Math | 70 | 44 |
| Total | 134 | 98 |
