Title: Prac exams- which are good/hard/easy
Post by: bec on September 18, 2008, 09:09:59 pm: I just did the 2007 Heffernan CAS exam, and found it pretty good. Anyone else done it?

Post by: ReVeL on September 20, 2008, 04:03:17 pm: Anyone done any of the A+ exams?

I'm thinking of ordering them so any feedback would be good.

Post by: Mao on September 20, 2008, 04:37:41 pm: save your money and get something else

A+ exams are a big waste of time and money

A+ notes for mathematics are slightly better

I understood it relatively fine o_O Seems like nothing compared to that 90 word sentence or whatever from that arts book in that other thread... But still, the hell was with that in the first place o_o

Yeah I just did Kilbaha 2007, it was definitely much longer than the other ones! I thought the actual content was about average difficulty, but only just finished in time so I couldn't check my answers...
