The biggest change in the sat math section (besides the elimination of Quantitative Comparisons) is its increased focus on algebra. The new SAT covers more algebra, and in greater depth.

There is some silver lining to this dark cloud. First, the topics covered aren’t that advanced: If you’ve taken three years of high school math, you should be familiar with them. Second, reading this chapter will prepare you for any algebra the new SAT throws at you.
