    wait really, are you joking or not?

    ICAS help :)

    I find reading the text first easier as sometimes there are like 8 total questions and I can't memorise ALL 8 questions and read the passage and I forget them as I read through the text. But I will try reading some non-fiction novels and articles as you suggested. :)

    Any tips for writing on the spot essays?

    hey, I'm only in yr 8, but I might have some advice. What I do is practice writing an essay each day under a time limit that you are comfortable with, and then you slowly start to decrease the time limit, and then within like 2 months you would be pretty good at writing essays. Basically, just...

    I did AMC but it was in year 6 and got a distinction, the last 5 questions have 6,7,8,9,10 marks on them so they are really hard. Back then I found quite a lot of year 6 AMC past papers and I noticed that the final question on the past paper actually appeared on the exam so I knew how to work it...

    Oh ok, Im having very similar grades, and I can see your extra curricular are way better than mine, I tried for house captain, but one person in my class had his mum work at the school so he got it instead of me. But how do you apply for duke of Edinburgh?

    Help with AMC past paper question

    For anyone who doesn't know how to do it, I figured it out. Answer: 30 Why? Well, you gotta find the lowest common multiple first, which is 15x27, you get 405 and from here to go until 419 because you can only go 14 integers as stated when divided by 15. So you get...
