They changed the selective exam?

Just read the news and this is what it exactly said:
A series of five tests form the selective entry high school examination:
• verbal reasoning
• numerical reasoning
• persuasive or creative written expression
• reading comprehension
• mathematics.
 
Four of the tests are multiple-choice, each run for 30 minutes in length and do not include reading time. The writing test is 30 minutes in duration, plus an additional 10 minutes of planning time. Normally, a short 15-minute break is taken after the completion of the writing test.

Is it persuasive or creative??
And is there 10 minute planning time?
Whatt?

Hello there !

Yes the selective exam has changed. For the writing bit, it is unknown whether it would be persuasive or creative so I suggest to just be ready for anything. However, you will have 10 minutes of planning time and then another 30 minutes for writing so altogether, 40 minutes.

Hope that answers your question.
