Is it possible to leave out the preposition "at" in the following?

What time has Susan got maths?
- At half past ten.
- Half past ten.
 
Welcome to the forum, Hannele.

Yes, it is.
 
I think the question should be "What time did Susan get ..." or "What time does Susan get ..."

What does "to get maths" mean?

Thank you.
 
I take it to mean 'to get a maths lesson'.
 
'What time has Susan got maths?' is fine in informal conversation.

It means 'At what time is Susan's maths (AE math) lesson?'
 
Ah, I think I understand it now.

"What time has Susan got maths?"="What time does Susan have maths/a math class/lesson?"

I misinterpreted it as the present perfect.
