Anyone else sitting Suzanne Cory for year9 2025

MMHS

Im quite upset with my math though i could've gotten at least 65

MMHS

idk abt you but I finsihed both writing pieces with 10 mins to spare so I was just looking at everyone writing away lol. I got up to go to the toilet and realised how large the james an company is honestly, around 900 kids attend and that ,means james an students take up about 20-30% of all students who take the exam!

MMHS

Now that I think about it, how did you get middle, you should've gotten above as well bc we had similar scores

MMHS

also, what was your preference order? mine was MHS, Suzanne and nossal i didn't put coz of the distance and travel time

MMHS

also i find factorising and finding the value of x questions to be particularly easy and so i usually whizz through them, hence why i found the parabola question easy

MMHS

Oh yeah and simulation was quite easy, writing was quite easy, math was surprisingly easy too, and luckily i fracticed my fractional powers that same day because there was that one question on fractional powers that ik a lot of people got wrong. verbal easy as always, reading was also easy and quantitative was fairly easy apart from a few timetaking ones.

Miio

PotatoSinghThe3rd Same!! My maths and both writings are consistently getting above or superiors but like numerical is … dog water

PotatoSinghThe3rd

Miio

Haha, yeah. I can 100% relate, i'm fairly upset with my math though. But we can do this!

MMHS

PotatoSinghThe3rd
for numerical, I remember a question about the average of cricket scores for the mock test, I find these rlly easy and usually answer them first. U?

PotatoSinghThe3rd

MMHS

Hello again! So, my mistake I got higher in persuasive which means we were literally the opposite. Yeah, i'm also pretty upset with my math but it's numerical that killed me. That's also probably the reason why I got middle. I have these panic issues, so i'm really trying to just meditate and focus on staying calm during tests. For preferences I put Suzanne first followed by MHS and nossal. Just saying, i'm not the fastest when it comes to quick calculations, but the cricket averages are quite easy. It is more the tricky worded problems for me. Hope we get in!

MMHS

PotatoSinghThe3rd
Yeah same like on the mock test I just went in a state of 'dumbness' i guess for just maths lol. Just make sure that you keep practicing at home under TIMED conditions as this is the best way to get rid of that stress/panic

MMHS

PotatoSinghThe3rd
Yes I agree 100%

PotatoSinghThe3rd

MMHS

I can definitely associate with the state of 'dumbness', that's the worst part for me. If that happens during the actual test.. i'm a goner. I'm just trying really hard NOT to freeze. And yes, practising under timed conditions, as always. For me it just feels so different when I am taking test at a site, like with other people. Bc i'm not really used to that. Anyway, good luck!

MMHS

PotatoSinghThe3rd
Same

:):

PotatoSinghThe3rd
That's 100% me! I don't know what happens to me, i just become a statue and my brain goes blank and this never happens at home (of course, timed) but as you said at a site with hundreds of other students flooding all around. For numerical, it was a complete surprise because i am more better in maths as compared to english but in this N.R, I got the worst scores... If I get this for N.R then i am gone..

Miio

PotatoSinghThe3rd hi!! Do u have any like example questions from James an that I could attempt I can give some examples of the questions I do. If not that’s ok 🙂 I’m wayyyyyy to nervous for the exam

:):

I am honestly really mad at myself for N.R because i got so much into solving the puzzles at the start of the test that i completely lost track of time and ended up randomly filling up the bubbles for the worded questions in the middle that i would have actually scored on...
Anyways, Good luck to everyone!
It is soooo nearrrrr alreadyyy!!!

Miio

:): what school did u out as ur first preference

MMHS

:):
So you did the James an mock test. What were results if you did it?

:):

Miio
My first preference is Macrob what abt urs?

:):

MMHS
uhhh, my results.. they r not good. umm u can say they are bad. hehe..
V.R and Creative writing, i got high average. For N.R I got low average, I lost track of time 🙁 and for R.C I got below average 😭. I knowww, R.C was the easiest for me but I went to the bathroom, and because of that i wasn't able to do seven questions and ended up randomly marking them. Then Math I got a Sup. I am worried abt my persuasive writing though, I got like low average in that.
I mean how do you guys manage to stay calm during writings!

Also, can anyone pls share some tips for persuasive writing and how to finish it early..... !!

Miio

Hi Miio! So, I'm not really sure if we are allowed to share questions from the mock exam... but why not. Here's a few example questions from a couple subjects.

For math we had a few simple and straightforward algebra questions like:

Find the value of (2 ÷ √16 - 2 ÷ 2√9)
Solve for x in 3²(x-3) = 81
Make x the subject for (2x-4y)/x = 1

Verbal:

Choose the closest synonym for the following word:
Annihilated
A. Dismembered
B. Reduced
С. Destroyed
D. Split
E. None of these

If STOCK is coded as NPLAJ the code for Price is
A. KNFAD
B. OQHBD
C. NKDAF
D. FKDAN
E. None of these

I'm not sure if that was too helpful, bc most of the problems were very lengthy and I couldn't bother typing them (especially numerical and reading). But that's an example of a few questions on the easier side. Good luck! As there is literally 19 days left and counting.

MMHS

Miio
Hi there!
Some of them included: rationalise: 4/sqrt5 -1, axis of symmetry and finding the equation of the parabola given and some others but i think PotatoSinghThe3rd also gave a few of the other questions as well

Miio

:): my first preference is Cory then macrob just to be safe haha although Both are pretty competitive
