STAT Test - Is this easy?

[Celebrity]

I'm going to do my STAT test on May 26, and just wondering how others found it?

I think you can only do it once in a year, and I really don't want to stuff it up.

Hi Celeb. How are you?

Wrong. You can do it once every offer round. So that's twice a year.

I did it two years ago and it's completely multiple choice. I found it easy. I was the only person out of a group of 8 however who actually finished it before the allotted time.

My suggestion is to get some of the 'practice test' booklets and do them. That way you'll have some idea of what kinds of questions to expect, and how to work them out before you walk in.

Good luck.

What kinds of questions are they?

If you get a hold of the practice book/s (there's 2) you'll find out. I highly recommend you do that. They are basically trying to test your english and quantitative problem solving.

For instance:

Billy went to Mary's Fruit Shop and bought the following:
2 banana's at $1.09 each.
5 pears at $0.34 each.
15 apples at $0.61 each.
3 custard apples at $2.37 each.
14 kiwi fruit at $0.72 each.
Billy was given $7.89 change.
How much did Billy have to begin with?

Etc.

I found it rather easy, I left about halfway through the test cause I was finished. I got pretty good marks too :)

Cool. I think I should be okay.

It's for next years rounds. Just wanted to get in early.
