How many of you can do this http://edinformatics.com/timss/pop3/mpop3.htm?submit32=Gr.+12+Adv.+Math+Test Post your score here, I don't know how to do any of it now :-( I think I have dyscalculia
OK. I'll kick off. I scored 56%. Is that a pass? I didn't understand several of the terms (e.g. translation) used in the questions, made wrong guesses on the one-third where I didn't have a clue, and haven't sat a math exam for forty years.
I'll try guessing and see how I do Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Fri May 28 06:14:48 2010 Your final score = 28 % So far, 959 people have taken this test. The average score of those students is = 21 %
I did it quickly, without writing anything down or doing any calculations other than in my head, and got 68%. Made a few silly mistakes and some questions I just couldn't be bothered...

Fri May 28 11:36:06 2010 96%!! Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! One question I got right but had to guess (Q12) as the answer I came up with wasn't among the choices. One I just didn't really have a clue.
44% - got all but 2 of the ones I've actually been taught in my life, plus a couple guesses. Quite pleased with that, can't get right what I haven't been taught.

Good work, and what's funny is this is 12th grade exam according to site Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Even if it's for a 12th grade, it's quite difficult. Oh my mistake is apparently at the last question (#25): A string is wound symmetrically around a circular rod. The string goes exactly 4 times around the rod. The circumference of the rod is 4 cm. and its length is 12 cm. Find the length of the string. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! Answer: width = 4 x 4 = 16 length = 12 diagonal length = (16^2 + 12^2)^0.5 = 20 So now I should get 100 pts (in a 12th grade exam Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!)
F**k the quiz, it's too early. I'll get back to you later when I'm fully awake and let you know how I do.
