Good luck. I was blindsided with that. I'm sorry but i could not remember exactly what it was. Maybe because i did not know most of them. They said it is not considered in the admission criteria.

I'm not sure, but you would probably be safe knowing how to calculate gtts. For example mcg/kg/min, mcg/min, mg/hr. And if they give you mc/kg/min know how many ml/hr it's going at etc. Also how to dilute drugs. Ex diluting something in a 10 cc syringe. That's the normal math type questions they like to ask. Some schools may also ask you a question like "what's 5% of 100"

I didn't have a math test in my interview, exactly. I was asked questions about gas laws (why they expected me to know this, I have no idea). ABG interpretation and being able to calculate an anion gap from a chem7 is also essential. Other than being asked about the partial pressure of gases at room air and needing to calculate an AG, there wasn't any other "math." Mostly just "numbers" (ABG interp, PA Cath numbers, etc).
