This week, a maths test.

Is Q12 a trick question? O_o And Q17 too... there should be 2 correct answers, but if you click one of them, it tells you you're wrong O_o

Anyway, me = 20/20.

I'm afraid to take it...

Considering the test requires you to do multiplications that involves decimals, I'd say you're allowed to use a calculator ^_~

And I take ages because I actually have to think about stuff... :(

Something to do with job nature, I'd say. It's just lack of practice, it's not like you don't know how to do it!

True. And not writing anything down nor using a calculator. Also, not knowing English names for certain triangles, was it? *shrugs* I only did precalculus in the States, so I don't know any geometry terms in English.

I admit I forgot what what negative exponents mean and had to ask a colleague. It *has* been a long time since I last had to solve a months problem!!

what a calculator! *stares at papers with scrawled writing* Now she tells me. *sighs*

15/20. :/// I love equations, but percentages without a calculator kill me.

Whoa. 17/20, even though I'm so rusty in maths that it's not even funny. Haven't even looked at equations in ages! (though I must admit that at least one if not two of those correct answers were just lucky guesses...)

I forgot what an isosceles triangle was... I felt quite dumb. And I got some other question wrong but that was a stupid mistake. 18/20 for someone who hasn't thought about math in 3 years, I can live with that.

Oh and I saw one of those double answered ones. Where you have to solve for x but since it's a squared it can be either -2 or +2. Silly math test.
