My friend in Yr 9 took the Kurt's entrance test and got in for Term 1 this year. I asked him about it and he said that there was a lot of algebra. From other people who go to Kurt, they all said that it was quite challenging.
no but i can give u a compendium of kurt yr 12 tests if u obtain the surname distribution data from @gmenoza
Oh, thanks but Im only in year 7, thanks again
Hi There, are you sitting entrance test soon? When is your entrance test? Will this be your first time entrance test? Are you already in a top selective school?
OK i go to kurt right now & I remember him saying a few years ago that he primarily eliminates junior students off obvious blunders Like not knowing how to expand (a+b)^2 in year 7
Yes, really soon on Thursday the 15th, and yes it is my first time writing this test. No I am not in a selective school.
Ok, thanks a lot! Sorry for ebing so annoying and asking all of these questions but I will revise these topics again, but on top of that should I do complex questions based on the textbook that we use in school or how did you master the test?
Lol you got this. Good luck. I didn't even know you had to bring your own stationery to the entrance test so I had to ask around for a pen before the exam started. You're much more prepared than I was. You'll do well.
Lol sorry I don't have time to find my past tests rn cos I'm studying for trials... that's your best bet for sure
Yeah, I understand, Thanks and Good Luck with your studies!
Hi there, can I please send you direct PM. Just about Kurt. Thanks.
Hey, Sorry I'm kinda new to this site, so I don't know how to send a DM or fix my settings to receive one, so if you can please do, if not kindly tell me how
Thank you very much!Really late but Kurt often talks about how he will immediately reject people who makes mistakes that should not be made by their year. He had ranted in class about how someone who wanted to join a yr 10 class had x²>1, which was right, but then gave an answer of x>±1 (cue a "Are you kidding??"™ from Kurt and a failed entrance exam). It is a good idea to study lots of algebra, trig and geometry before you take the exam and make sure that you do as much as you can.
I was able to get in first try, but I remember not being able to finish all of them and only doing about 60% of the test.
The entrance exams for yr 9 onwards are crazy though, so I suggest getting into Kurt in yr 7, yr 8 or early yr 9 (where you do the entrance exam late yr 8) before everything starts becoming too competitive
if they make the test too hard, chances are they just want to suck the living hell out of your or your parent's wallet . It's not worthy to go to a place that just tests you on over complicated bull shit that wont be on an exam unless you are doing it for fun.
