How it works
Step 1
Try it cold
Each problem is a multi-part, 8-mark question in an unfamiliar context, like the real paper.
Step 2
Hints when stuck
Two hints per part: where to start, then the key step. They never give the answer away.
Step 3
Check and self-mark
Full worked solutions and an NZQA-style mark guide so you can score yourself out of 8.
Two tiers
Bridge problems step up from NCEA Level 3 Excellence with more scaffolding. Scholarship problems are full exam standard: unfamiliar contexts, derivations and extended explanations.
