what is the first section of the sat?
reading
the sat has four sections: reading, writing and language, math (no calculator), and math (calculator allowed). the test taker may optionally write an essay which, in that case, is the fifth test section. the total time for the scored portion of the sat is three hours (or three hours and fifty minutes if the optional essay section is taken). some test takers who are not taking the essay may also have a fifth section, which is used, at least in part, for the pretesting of questions that may appear on future administrations of the sat. (these questions are not included in the computation of the sat score.) two section scores result from taking the sat: evidence-based reading and writing, and math. section scores are reported on a scale of 200 to 800, and each section score is a multiple of ten. a total score for the sat is calculated by adding the two section scores, resulting in total scores that range from 400 to 1600. there is no penalty for guessing on the sat: scores are based on the number of questions answered correctly. in addition to the two section scores, three "test" scores on a scale of 10 to 40 are reported, one for each of reading, writing and language, and math. the essay, if taken, is scored separately from the two section scores.

bullet::::- know your speed: for this year, this challenge has been extensively overhauled, with the challenge now requiring the drivers to drive a mobile home down a long straight course, with a target speed of 30 km/h in the first section, 50 km/h in the second and 70 km/h in the third section. the speedometer will be blacked out, however, forcing the drivers to use their judgement in finding the correct speed. krystal is supposed to be first-up, but gets into an argument with steven over her continued insistence on using her phone while at the wheel and then when andrew tells her that she was making a fuss over nothing, she storms off and refuses to attempt the challenge. tyler's run proves much less dramatic, but he still drives well over the target speeds, going 15 km/h too fast in the first section and 20 km/h too fast in the second and third sections. daniella goes 10 km/h too fast in the first section, despite her fears of driving at speed, but is on-target in the second section and actually 10 km/h too slow in the third section. mike is even more over-cautious, going around 10 km/h too slow in all three sections. lou is the slowest of all, however, by 10 km/h in the first section and 20 km/h in the second and third. krystal, after making an implied threat to quit the show unless andrew apologizes for what she claims to be overly vindictive behaviour towards her, finally relents and undertakes the challenge; when she does so, she speeds far more even than tyler did, going double the speed limit in the first section, 40 km/h too fast in the second and 30 km/h too fast in the third.
