YR10SEHSASPIRANT maths was not too tough honestly, also nr wasn't that hard it was just that some tutoring centres didn't practice those types of questions (format) enough, so it was kind of like a shock
MMHS didn;t u say math was hard before?????
MHS successful candidate no i said that maths was only tough because it wasn't the format i was used to, the question type
MHS successful candidate anyways it doesn't matter anymore, i already go to mhs so no point dwelling on the test, its time for your cohort
yeh tru, if you did make it into a sehs school, there's no point dwelling on the test anymore, and math imo wasn't too bad, it was hard but it was doable
asianasen coud u provide an example if possible
MHS successful candidate for a math question? i really do not remember the questions for the test, but i did get a superior for math
asianasen that is GOOOD!! oh ok
asianasen do u know if it require constructing geometry or smth?
MHS successful candidate it's been almost a year since ive done the test, but there might be some constructive geometry, since acer made the test questions difficult to work out, and the format of the question was diagrams or worded iirc
asianasen ok thanks!
MHS successful candidate alg! js ask if you need anything else, i have a fond memory of the verbal, writing and english for some reason, maybe because the math is js too annoying
asianasen for me problem with reading comp is instinct, verbal well vocab, writing is my main struuggle
MHS successful candidate writing (for both creative and narrative) revolves around the same prompt
verbal has some venn diagram problems (some mops are dops, etc), some word definition questions (not much at all), it should be the easiest test out of the 6. iirc there should be some questions that are a tweaked version of the venn diagram problems that asks you for contradiction i think
reading has like at least 1 or 2 poems and 3 or 2 short extracts from texts, look at the questions then continue on the text, PLEASE do not read the whole thing, skim the text while also taking in the information given by the texts

asianasen thank u for this! ill surely practice these types of questions
they will give weird and god damn annoying prompts (ill bet 10 bucks on this one) for the writing, as we had cinemas for last years test, js remember to use the teel structure if possible in persuasive, also have 2-3 body paragraphs, 2-3 sentences or even 1 slightly longer one for conclusion. for introduction js do a brief introduction of your points, as for the first sentence, ill give an example
prevailing in society, [subject] is the main factor for [first point, cause], as this has led to [effect] in many areas.
or for the first sentence, you can give an introduction to your topic you are arguing (do not introduce your points in the first sentence at all if you are doing this, then for the 2nd sentence, use the one above if u want)
