Another silly make that I did wrong:

Q. The ratio of boys to girls enrolled in a course was 3 to 4. Three more boys enrolled in the course bringing the number of boys to 18. What is the ratio of boys to girls now>

A) 3 to 2 B) 3 to 4 C) 6 to 7 D) 9 to 10.

I'll admit I got lazy and didn't read the question thoroughly.

I got 29/32 for the Calculator Section again.

One of the questions that I did wrong.

Q. The total area of all the faces of a cube is 24 m^2. What is the volume of the cube?

A) 8m^3 B) 36 m^3 C) 64 m^3 D) 216 m^3.

it's early Friday morning, that's my excuse for getting that one wrong. I'll admit it, I can't get 100% in any of these NAPLAN tests...and yes some of you guys will be laughing your socks off.

I have run out of trials but I have purchased Sami El Hosri's Year 9 NAPLAN and will strive for that Band 10 (100%).

You're being an idiot.

Just keep studying for your HSC. Your relationship with the naplan was over like 3 years ago, you've both separated, move on.

I think with maths no matter what level you are, you always want to 'improve'. I don't think you can ever honestly say 'I know everything in maths'. I think I gained a greater appreciation of maths by redoing more and more questions. I've been called 'weird' by people in the past, in that maybe I put my study ahead of my social life, family but it's just in my blood. I do questions, test papers, text books of all sorts and I actually live for maths, breathe for maths and it might not be a great level compared to other people, you can get called 'strange' or 'geniuses' by people who think you have an addiction to something.
