Nice post.  Also, for your creative/persuasive writing, I guess there's no harm in looking up 5-10 'big' vocab words and memorising their meanings (5-10 words shouldnt be too hard to memorise). Eg of words : tedious, meticulous, cumbersome etc.  Try to be descriptive and set up your character and story.

Yeah I never really thanked him properly, all his posts about selective schools were really helpful and no doubt played a part in me getting accepted.

Thanks :).

Hey pi!
Thanks for all the information, it was really kind of you to do this. I'm just wondering, will this apply for the NSW Selective Tests in Year 9? I don't know if you know this school or not, but I'm applying for North Sydney Boys High School and I've been studying quite a lot. The test is pretty soon and will consist of Mathematics and Writing. So I'm wondering whether the information you've provided here on Maths and Writing will be relevant to the test in NSW.

Thanks in advance.

P.S I'm in year 8 at the moment.

Hi can you link me to any quadratic equations problems? And also linear equation problems. I have been struggling to find these kinds of problems on the net :D
