Next time I would recommend getting extra help. Three girls, four in the morning... Yeh, that should do it.

Full marks but then I do a lot of maths.

The questions are the type that are very easily mis-read.

E.g. black vs. white, multiply vs. divide, the badly drawn shape to confuse you...

Presumably the one that didn't say CORRECT in green above the next question.

Anyone that doesn't get 14 on that should be ashamed of themselves.

Piece of piddle. 14/14 in under 3 mins. And I'm pretty sure I could have done the same when I was 11 too.

Incorrect addition for the temp question 18 + 32 doesn't equal 40! That'll teach me for doin it in my head. Doesn't take that long either.
