For the M-N question I nearly wrote 18 instead of -18 cos I misread it as N-M and so I went 50 - 32.. thank god I checked my answers lol.

Nahh I dont' think mine was necessarily the right answer, I mean everyone seems to have different answers on here..
I still hate basic skills maths in comparison to level 3 content no matter what xD

What do you mean by basic skills maths? Just like all this non-calculator stuff? What makes it hard for you?
I don't know why but for my SC Trials I only got 80/100 (I hope i get 90+ for the real SC) but for all my level 3 tests i get like from 90% to 100%!

Aw well I guess its just knowing how to do the questions.. I mean once you encounter a question and know how to do it then next time you see the same type of question you will be able to do it? Or just being able to figure out how to do it on the fly..

And btw I'm assuming level 3 means like those 5.3 textbooks?

100 is out of the question as a raw mark, because I was so stupid as aformentioned as to not change something I realized i got wrong in the non calculator. Other than that I think I will surpass my goal of 97 :)

Aw haha well I remember when you said that it would be embarassing for us if you, a yr9er beat us =P I'm really curious as to how well you did.

I'd say 100 would be hard to get because every section had at least one or two troll questions =="
Hm well you never know~ Only question that's dodgy for me so far is that triangle one ._. And hopefully I didn't stuff up anything in the MC but I'm sure I did at least once haha. I guess we'll see once December rolls around.

I may eat my words with the "embarrassment if year 9's beat you thing. I possibly underestimated the participants in this forum and overestimated my own ability haha.
