[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid tested today 9am til 12. Various bathroom / water breaks. Math had 6 sections, whole exam was 3 separate types. Nothing like the SCAT apparently (which my kid took over the holidays). There were spacial, math and language questions. All multiple choice.[/quote]

At the information night they said there would not be a math section. I guess they were still figuring it out and in the end it changed.[/quote]

I think that is true, no math, if you only test for Eastern. My kid tested for both Magnets. Math, English and Spacial reasoning, as I said above.[/quote]

NP here -- At the information night, the question/answer about whether there was a math section was not about the Eastern test.  Rather, the representative said that there would be no quantitative section, period, just verbal and non-verbal (which I took to mean pattern recognition, forming cubes, etc) and that was repeated when she was answering individual questions off the podium. That of course seemed crazy at the time, and I'm glad they rethought matters, but it is in fact different from what they said.  [/quote]
