really unlucky if I’m being honest I went like 40 seconds overtime in maths because I forgot to colour in the last few questions but luckily the teacher didn’t see me (I hope)

Wow, you’re really lucky. I hope the teacher didn’t see you, but I think the reason I was caught was because I was at the very end of the rows. Like right where the teachers stand.

tbh, idk what the education department people will say. in a way, if you email them and it turns out that the supervisors never "noted" it in the first place and it actually has a concequence then youre stuck. but, i mean, i don't think shading bubbles over time is gonna result in your exams not being marked or getting marks deducted.

I hope you’re right. In fact, I’m literally betting my stakes of getting into a selective school that you’re right. You also have a point about me actually telling them about the incident and them not having done anything about it. I don’t want to be stuck in that dilemma so I might just wait for now(agonisingly).

did you see anybody else get told that they would be noted? or was it just you?

Numerical:kinda easy but prob could of done better
Writing:EASSY

I’m assuming someone might’ve also been told that but I’m not aware of it. All I know was that I was told that.

ikr. ok those people who claimed that the tests were easy, were probably trying to cover up or act confident to avoid getting nervous or something because i know for a fact numerical can not be described as ‘easy’, unless you’re terribly smart to the point you can even comprehend those last 10 questions in maths

FINALLY SOMEONE WHO AGREES WITH ME, NUMERICAL WAS 10x HARDER THAN MATHS

Guys, not to sound cocky or anything, but HOW DID U FIND THE MATHS HARD?!?! I did like 45 for maths and guessed the rest. It WASNT EVEN YEAR 10 MATHS (except for the last questions). I thought numerical was hard af. I literally did 25 questions on numerical, then spammed B’s. For verbal I did around 35 questions and guessed. But I did rlly good on writing and though I finished reading, I probably got a above average

ok so i know im not one to be posting on this thread but like:

1. damn they put cubics in the math exam yall really unlucky
2. there are sometimes incredibly late offers (one of my friends got sent one in november and another in early december)
3. i dont remember there even being a clock. maybe there was and i didnt even notice hahahah. you should however try to use your time wisely once you hear "5 minutes left". look at the questions you have skipped and think "can i solve this in 30 seconds at most?" if not, mark it as C (you can do B if you wanna be different)(this is the next time for an exam, doesnt matter if it's for shs or not)
4. apparently they completely changed the format of numerical and verbal after speaking to some people who were preparing for 1-2 years. if you did horribly on it (or you think you did but you end up with 6 superiors) youre not alone
5. plEASE PLEASE PLEASE for those who went over the time limit dont do it ever again. youre not supposed to be able to finish the test!! even tho some people might have, just guess the rest with those time warnings. peoples tests dont get thrown into the bin but that whole entire test isnt even marked at all. i know this is a horrible thing and its not making anyone feel better but please dont go over the time limit (tHIS IS THE CASE FOR 99% OF THE EXAMS IF NOT 100%)

im sorry if i sound even a little bit rude. these were just some things i wanted to say. hopefully yall really do get in to the schools you want <3
taking a break.
