Program Resources (From CDE [California Department of Education]: Supplemental information for the High School Exit Examination, such as the blueprint, released test questions, study guides, teacher guides.)  The state's resources for both English-Language Arts and math are available at this resource page.  Some of the math links from this resource page are shown as follows:

CAHSEE Math Blueprint.  Lists each content standard tested, and the number of test questions matching each content standard.  Notice that the standards are from Grade 6, Grade 7, and Algebra 1.  Note: the most recent blueprint available is from 2003, but the information contained in it should still be applicable to the current exam (that blueprint was the last one approved by the State Board of Education; no new blueprint has since been approved).

Released Test Questions (made available October 2008).  This is an excellent resource.  216 questions have been released from prior exams, matched to the five strands on the test.  Only 80 questions are on the math exam, so these 216 questions can provide a good review for many--even most--of the concepts and skills that are necessary to pass the mathematics exam.

Study Guide.  This is the state's most recently updated pamphlet for all 10th grade students in the state.  We haven't received any at Mt. Everest yet, but it is downloadable, in full or in parts.  We do have copies of the previous state study guide, which has almost the same information.  If you want the older study guide, ask me for it in room 3 anytime except when I'm teaching a class. 

Teacher Guide.  Students and parents are welcome to read this if they wish.  Some of the explanations of problems, especially the analysis of the correct answers and the distractors, might be helpful for areas where students might feel weakest.
