That makes me feel so much better tbh ;D Numerical Reaoning wasn't too bad- just that there was so many questions!
But Math this year was indead a WTF test; literally, 2/3 of the entire test I had no idea about.

Hey guys, I did the test as well I feel like I guessed so much of the maths it's not even funny... But other than that I thought the tests was okay... What I did was, if I had a problem or the question took too long I just skipped it and circled the letter that fit the best... Hopefully I get in... At this point I don't really care what school I get into cause at least I got in. I think there were about 3000 kids trying out! I felt quite comfortable with the reasoning tests and I only had to guess one question in reading comprehension, and writing I feel like went well... BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYBODY I HOPE YOU GET IN

Persausive- Should workers have 3 day weekends instead of 2
Creative- Was 2 lines: "I warned you" and "I should have listened to you can we talk about it later?"

Don't worry about the math tbh ;)... It was incredibly difficult and even the lady said it was too. Also, it is good that you found majority of the tests were simple for you. This gives you an advantage out of the other 300 kids! Which school is your prefernece?
Yes, there was like 3000 kids; my friends number was like 3100? Results don't come out till August though  :(
Best of Luck hegihugo :)

I'm wondering how you did the test- just out of curiosity.  Ikr ;D I'm dieing for my results! Why can't they just be faster?
