I know a kid who broke down crying in his year 10 maths class because he got 1/20. :\

Lol, I averaged 90% in Sem 1 and 97% in Sem 2 when I had him in year 10. Most averages were ~50-60% though.

Sorry, but I seriously don't remember anything. I was too worried about how I did on my own test. The good thing about Yarrussky is that his tests are way harder than the exam, so even if you average ~60-70% in GMA, thats nearly a guaranteed A+ in both exams.

LOL was this only question 1...?
must have been an awesome test

6 questions (6 graphs), 80 minutes. Around 12-15 marks per question.

My teacher is Russian...

If it does, just go with the flow.
I'm not sure that was a maths joke or not ('flow' referring to the sine curve)...

And that is why I shudder whenever I see his tests. I heard several people didn't finish.

That's Russians for you, they are the strictest people you will ever find. Mind you they get results.

He was also a taxi driver and worked for the CSIRO. What a legend.

Man his tests are epic.
I dunno why, but whenever you do his tests, wait 6 months and think of the questions again... they don't actually seem that hard. [ But they ARE hard. get what im saying? No? That's cool.. See what those tests do to your head? :P]
