ukmt challenge

so i did the ukmt challenge in yr 12 and i got a bronze award. now my school is making it compulsory that we do it again this year, and I'm scared I'll do really awful. Cause i redid last years paper and i got 8 out of 100. it was bad. idk if my math skills drastically improve during tests or if I'm awesome at guessing. I don't know. Anyway I'm trying to prepare. Wish me luck🤷🏾*♀️

In UKMT Challenges marks are deducted for wrong answers so if you can't answer a question it's better to leave it out than to guess.

I don't believe in luck but well done for preparing - re-doing last year's paper is good preparation.

I'm doing it as well and if you don't know the answer to the question, don't answer. I did a previous Senior Maths Challenge for preparation and to be honest, I found it easier than the Intermediate one. It doesn't matter if you do bad anyway, it doesn't contribute towards anything (unless you wanted to get into the Olympiad).

Sorry if i'm being a bit dumb but it says each file is password protected so I can't access them?

I literally guessed the password right on my first attempt. The password is "ukmt".

Password to open is "ukmt", all lower case without quotes.

I tried pasting it into the thing thinking it was the password but I didn't know it was morse code. What is the point in having it in morse code?

Have you got mark schemes for these or just the papers?

Yes, I do. But I don't want to just post it.
Let me know if you need any specific ones.

Nevermind I just realised that the senior challenge ones have the mark scheme on the first page so I deleted my message. Thanks a lot for compiling all of this btw
