Time allowed：75 minutes

INSTRUCTION AND INFORMATION

GENERAL

1. Do not open the booklet until told to do so by your teacher.

2. No calculators, slide rules, log tables, math stencils, mobile phones or other

calculating aids are permitted. Scribbling paper, graph paper, ruler and compasses are permitted, but are not essential.

3. Diagrams are NOT drawn to scale. They are intended only as aids.

4. There are 20 multiple-choice questions, each with 5 choices. Choose the most reasonable answer. The last 5 questions require whole number answers between 000 and 999 inclusive. The questions generally get harder as you work through the paper. There is no penalty for an incorrect response.

5. This is a mathematics assessment, not a test; do not expect to answer all questions. 6. Read the instructions on the answer sheet carefully. Ensure your name, school

name and school year are filled in. It is your responsibility that the Answer Sheet is correctly coded.

THE ANSWER SHEET

1. Use only pencils.

2. Record your answers on the reverse side of the Answer Sheet (not on the question paper) by FULLY filling in the circles which correspond to your choices.

3. Your Answer Sheet will be read by a machine. The machine will see all markings even if they are in the wrong places. So please be careful not to doodle or write anything extra on the Answer Sheet. If you want to change an answer or remove any marks, use a plastic eraser and be sure to remove all marks and smudges.
