technically the math portion is also a reading test of sorts – you have to be careful about what they’re actually asking you to do (usually it is very simple)

that’s a good way of framing it, thanks

i think about half of my problem was basically that. i’m clearly out of the habit of the kinds of attention/meticulousness that this sort of test needs/not used to picking up on their favored ~key words~ or whatever about what’s been asked

the other half of the problem is that every time i reached a combinations question i just wrote “24C2 -> THERE’S A FORMULA FOR THIS PROBABLY” and then a lot of question marks, so i’m going to, uh……..look that up.
