About verbal reasoning, I don’t believe it was really hard. My vocabulary isn’t the best, so I kinda struggled with those, but everything else was essentially GA based. It wasn’t extremely hard as somehow some words and questions were the same as my practice tests. Pure coincidence. If you don’t make it in, I recommend using notesedu. I know I didn’t get in YET and I doubt I will get in, but I believe notesedu provided an accurate imitation of what the real test was like.

Same in verbal reasoning there was a question that was in one of my practice tests. The question was: Aircraft is to transport as Newspaper is to ____.

You did Edutest for entry into year 9 right? If you did, do you by any chance remember the text in reading comp about flowers. I was kinda confused by that one, like the question about what part of the rose are they talking abt. I put hair tho I'm not sure if it's right. Do you remember what you put?

sorry, i did for year 8 entry

 

[Kylin1276]

Yeah, as in the vocab meaning questions. I didn't know the meaning for many of them so I just had to make an educated guess.

That’s good to hear. What’s really annoying is that some words I don’t know at all, so I had to purely guess. On the other hand, there were these questions with 4 answers having the same meaning and the other being different, which was pretty easy.

Oh ok. It's all good. Our tests were different that explains it, cause tbh I found verbal reasoning quite difficult.

 

[Kylin1276]

Ngl, I don’t care if I don’t get into JRAHS. I did NBHS (normo) and Fort St. I did pretty good for NBHS in my opinion, and Fort St is just straight up guaranteed. So I have backup if I don’t get into the my most preferred school.

edutest was so fine except reading which i kinda guessed 10ish qs since i wasnt able to finish on time

 

[bluepanda@2502]

Wait Really?? im pretty sure we can only apply for 3 schools

 

[bluepanda@2502]

Same reading, VR, maths, and writing were good for me but i really struggled in NR. its ok tho we jus have to wait for results. My brother went to baulko (year 10 entry also) and he made it in with 2 superiors so if you think you're confident with atleast 2 - 3 superiors u should be good. Idk how i did for HAST though, everything was easy except for maths, only because of time pressure, but i think i should be fine. Good luck to you tho, im pretty sure youll make it in!
