Dear Learner,
I used 4 different test papers, per grade and per term (1) in these notes. The reason why
I mixed the papers of Gr 10, 11 and 12 is because of the similarities. MANY of the same
type of questions are repeated. If you master Grade 10, then Grade 11 and 12 will be a
breeze.
There is NO guarantee that everything in these notes is going to be in your test, but
these notes is VERY good practice. First, answer the questions in the activities and then
you mark your work.
Good luck, Juffrou Ansie
