These things are best kept secret. (Hint: make them write their own).

You have a population of 1000 penguins. 500 pairs produce one chick per pair. At the end of each year there is a loss of 20% of the total population. Figure out how many penguins there will be at the end of seven years. Develop a formula that solves the problem.

You can also google and find others, I presume once you have reviewed the Kate Dalby links.

Good Luck.

Does anyone know the format of this test?

I know one of the essays will be on the Math.

How many more essays are there? Are they all equally weighted? What's the total time for this round of the exam?

I suspect Curie has the questions you will see on this year’s test. Call them.

They probably won't have the questions, but they will be able to show you how to look smarter than you are by telling you how to solve them.

Rumor was they did in previous years. At least that was what some people said.

As far as I know, that was for the Quant-Q, not the problem-solving essay.

TJ students from Curie I've spoken to in those classes (2023 and 24) have agreed that the Quant-Q re-used a few questions from year to year on different forms, and therefore the 2024 Curie students did in fact see exact test questions as part of their signature TJ prep course.

The obvious implication is that some students from Curie's class of 2023 reported back from their exam having memorized some of the questions.
