Thank you. I passed my test yesterday. You are fantastic with with your working outs..

Taking my test on the 19th of November, your videos on your website and on here have been a great help! Feeling more confident about the test now :D Btw im the girl who emailed you about the pass mark for the tests :D

[@ganumerical1914]

Great that you're feeling more confident. That plays a large part in passing this test! Good luck.

The first method on the first question is so much easier for me to understand! Never looked at it that way. When I saw the fractions on the second method I panicked. Your videos are helping so much!

Hi Andy, I just need some clarification on converting money. When you change euros to pounds, do you divide to get the answer? And when you convert pounds to euros do you multiply it? I always forgot which one's which! Thanks a lot! I hope you answer my question! :)

[@jenibutler277]

Useful! I found Example 1 easier in Question 1. For question 2, I would have multiplied both sides by 10, so 25 francs equals 10 pounds, then 625 divided by 25, well, there are 4 x 25 in 100, so 6 X 4 = 24, plus the remaining 1X 25= 25. Multiply that by 10 to get £250

I have my test in 3 weeks and I am dreading it - so much so I am putting off revision :S Going to get back onto the revision tomorrow but my main problem is the panic, when I try and few questions out alone I am fine, put me in front of someone or with a timer on, and I just cannot do it and shut down...! But I will keep on practising and like everyone keeps saying Keep Calm! Thanks for your helpful videos.

[@ganumerical1914]

Hi, yes the time pressure is the killer part of this test and practising the short cut methods will help you go in to the test with the confidence to pass. Try our other videos and let us know how you get on. Good luck!

[@missperrey]

GA Numerical And I passed first time! Thanks so much for your extremely useful videos :)

[@ganumerical1914]

missperrey That's great news, well done! And before Christmas too :-)

How long do you have work work out questions like this?

[@scatybaty1]

i love this method but how does it work when the numbers don't half ... for example you have 336 euros ?

[@nataliawasilewska97]

hal of 300 is 150, half of 30 is 15 and half of 6 is 3. then add them all together :)

[@veritycole6955]

Hi Andy, I'm finding your 30 day course really helpful, but really could do with some more practice of the currency conversion questions, specifically. Do you have any worksheets just on these type of questions?

[@ganumerical1914]

Verity Cole hi, there is a mental test on just conversion questions. Whether its currency or distances its the same method each time

[@veritycole6955]

That's great. Could you please provide the link to this test?

[@veritycole6955]

Not to worry, I've found it. Thanks for flagging this up.

[@onlyheretooccasionallycomm5837]

Thank you so much, also I'm in love with your voice

[@Alwo8]

Wouldn't it best to do conversions in terms of ratio's instead?

[@ganumerical1914]

There is usually more than one way to answer any of the QTS test questions so I always suggest that students use the method that suits them best.
