So what do you guess you'll get in section 1 ?
Not sure. How many applicants are interviewed?

So it turns out that Cambridge does automatically publish results for the ENGAA according to their website: https://www.admissionstesting.org/for-test-takers/results/

Yup , and no the tsr policy is not to discuss any answers to an exam , and still people in the Americas didn't do it
To be honest it went so bad for me... I had to guess half of the questions in section two because I was running out of stamina lol. Section 1 was not ideal either. The specimen paper was wayyyyyy easier

Yeah same here
I am quite worried now as the normal boundary to get an interview is 60%? I guess. I dont think I will make it:tongue:

There's no such thing as normal boundary. Very few achieve above 60 % I suppose . It's only one part of the assessment criteria, they would still look at AS and UMS grades and predicted a levels
How did everyone find it?

Section 1A came very much manageable, 1B was a big horror show with many unattempted questions due to time constraint. Section 2 was so-so with 4-5 very hard questions(math derivations are pretty complex)

In summary ---- horrifying first hour with some consolation redeemed on the second half. Much harder than previous papers or the specimen, Cambridge might need to curve the results REAL HARD
The specimen papers were waaaay easier. I think Section 2 was actually easier than Section 1, and of course I had to make lot of educated guesses too, due to the time constraint.
It was really tough
Does anyone know approximately when they send off invitation for interview?
