What if every bottle of milk was replaced with white paint instead of milk?
Do you think people would like to paint their walls with some refrigerated paint?

Do some of their past papers, but they're seriously hard so I don't think I could do better

I didn't do it by choice, my teachers made me do it because they thought i had potential to do great , oh boy were they wrong.. The girls math Olympiad is for year 11 and over so senior? I knew I did bad but tbh was not expecting a 1

I'm doing a level maths so I guess the teacher thought that made me eligible to participate. The other girls who did it struggled too so it's not like I was the weakest link or anything and I would say our abilities were equally matched

Just try your hardest I guess and eat beforehand because grumbling tummy is embarrassing
