    How to work through this paper

    1. Sit the full paper timed at 60 minutes, no calculator or notes.
    2. Mark it against the official key before you look at any solution.
    3. Rewrite complete solutions for every question you missed or guessed — writing it out is what moves the technique into recall.
    4. Tag each loss by topic (Algebraic manipulation, Geometry, Counting, Number, Speed drills).
    5. Re-sit the same paper one week later and compare the time to your first attempt.
