TSI Math Practice Test: 20 Free Questions in the TSIA2 Mix

The TSIA2 math test starts with 20 questions, and 950 or higher counts as college ready. This set follows the same split across its four strands, with no time limit, like the real test.

These are GED-style questions, picked to match the TSIA2’s four math strands. They aren’t real TSIA2 questions, and the set gives no TSIA2 score.

  • Check each answer as you go and read the working before the next question.
  • The calculator and formula sheet in the toolbar are the GED ones, so they may not match the TSIA2 ones.

What’s on the TSIA2 math test

The first math test is called the College Readiness Classification (CRC) test. It has 20 questions from four strands, and this set uses the same split. Every question is multiple choice, and there’s no time limit.

The four TSIA2 math strands, what each covers and its questions on the first test (this set uses the same split)
StrandWhat it coversQuestions
Quantitative ReasoningRatios, proportions and percents, money problems, linear expressions and inequalities, rational and irrational numbers6
Algebraic ReasoningLinear equations and systems, linear functions, quadratic and exponential problems, polynomial, rational and radical equations7
Geometric and Spatial ReasoningUnit conversions, perimeter, area and volume, transformations, right triangles and basic trigonometry3
Probabilistic and Statistical ReasoningProbability, center and spread, data displays, conclusions from data4

Score below 950 on that test, and a 48-question diagnostic test comes next, with 12 questions from each strand. It also goes back to basics, like rounding and working with fractions.

What this set leaves out

The catch? TSIA2 math goes further than GED math in places, and this set doesn’t cover those parts:

  • Exponential growth and decay, and rational, radical and higher-degree polynomial equations
  • Right-triangle trigonometry, transformations, and similar and congruent figures
  • Comparing rational and irrational numbers, and sorting and graphing data

College Board’s free sample questions, linked below, come with answers and explanations.

The score that makes you college ready

The CRC test is scored from 910 to 990. A score of 950 or higher means you’re ready for college math. Below 950, a diagnostic level of 6 also counts as ready (Interpreting your scores).

Your college may weigh more than your score when it places you. And you can retake the TSIA2 at any time, so study the strands that held you back, then retest.

Before you take the TSIA2

  • Do the Pre-Assessment Activity. It’s required before you test (student brochure).
  • Ask about exemptions. Only students without an exemption have to take the TSIA2, so ask your college if you have one.
  • Leave your calculator at home. Handheld calculators aren’t allowed. Some questions show one on screen: a basic one, one with a square root key, or a TI-84 graphing calculator.

TSIA2 math vs GED math

The TSIA2 checks if you’re ready for college courses in Texas, so it goes further than the GED in places: exponential functions, rational and radical equations, and right-triangle trigonometry. GED math has no trigonometry at all.

The rest overlaps a lot: percents, linear equations, quadratics, area and volume, and probability. So GED-style practice covers much of the first test.
