my 2 cents about phase 2
This is just to put my 2 cents about phase 2. I passed phase 2 on June Friday 15.
1) Numeracy test. Long divisions, units conversion (instruction and conversione factors are clearly written within the specific question). These are subjects you should firmly know from primary school, and that you probably work with in your everyday life.
2) PILAPT test. I never experienced that prior to selection phase 2. I judged it very difficult, mostly it requires concentration and attention.
My opinion: nobody should worry about the numeracy test, while everybody should consider the PILAPT as a high demanding test, so requiring to face it relaxed after a 8 hours sleep and a good breakfast.
My question: why is everybody so worried about the numeracy test? It's not rocket science, every 11 y.o. student would kick it.
