Project Description:

I will have about 3500 questions for SAT mathematics.

I will be creating questions in 2 forms:

I want someone to do following for each of these questions:

1. Provide proper explanation to question and answer. This includes explaning if there are any tricks / common pitfalls for these type of questions.
2. Provide one line hint for each question that would guide student to possible answer.
3. Provide reasonable possible different answers with one correct answer among them.
4. For questions that requires complex algebraic equations or geometric diagrams, create them will tool provided by us. The tools we provide will save them in jpg files. Upload these images to server as part of explanation / question. There will be about 10-15% of the questions like this.
5. Format question - variable should be italic etc

All above work should be directly done on our website.

Conditions:
1. Answers must be accurate. More than 10 wrong answers found will terminate the contract.
2. Explanation should be reasonable, easily understandable by students. We will provide initial few explanations as format. We will have right to send the explanation / hint back for rework.
3. There should be very minimal typo.
4. Explanation should be in American English and should use terminologies used in american books for SAT. We will provide books for reference. Explanation should be original and should not be copied from other sources like books or websites.

3. Enter explanation
4. Provide one line hint
5. If multiple choice question - provide 4 to 5 possible answers with one correct. If grid question, provide one correct answer and also provide type of answer like integer, percent etc for grid question.
6. Verify formatting

- In explanation, final answer derivation statment should be bold.
- In explanation, description of reason for operation on step should be marked as italic.

Surely you don't want people to send you scans of the written questions! Would be much more professional to prepare the pdf in LaTeX. Just thought I'd let you know even though I'd doubt I'd bid for it as it doesn't sound worth my time as I'm a New Zealand, high living costs here ;)

I am very interested in this project. I am a SAT tutor and I am very familiar with solving and explaining these type of questions. I love putting into words Math solutions. I would like you to clarify the total length of the project. More specifically, you mentioned you would be giving 100 questions a day, with a total of 3500. Will questions be turned back in each day? Also, will there be more than one bid winner? Is the budgeted amount ($450) for the complete job (3500 questions) or is it divided? Thank you for your consideration,
