Tips for taking the exam
Plan your time well:
Work quickly but carefully: It is important that you read the questions carefully. Skimming and not paying attention can lead to important information being missed.
If you have difficulties with a task, do not work on it until later: It is better to use this time to solve other tasks that are easier for you.
If you do not know the solution to a task, take a guess: no points will be deducted for wrong answers. Therefore, guess which answer is correct. If you still have time later, you can return to this task. However, it is unlikely that you will guess the correct solutions in the ‘Mathematical Equations’ subtest.
