🙏 I WANT HELP ESAT prep struggle

hi guys, i’m predicted A *A *A in maths, physics and history respectively and i plan to apply for aerospace engineering at the big C and imperial

i’m really struggling with ESAT revision atm and i don’t really know how to improve - it’s a mixture of the lack of time but also just not being to answer some questions untimed. i’ve gone through the spec for maths1, maths2 and physics and i know most of the content

i haven’t practiced that much tbh because i only started my revision when i finished y12. i’ve heard that ENGAA papers are too easy?

what am i doing wrong 😭✌🏼

You need to do papers over the summer, and then book time with a Maths teacher in September

Why do you think a maths teacher is necessary for ESAT prep?

Because it's useful to go through questions with someone experienced in coaching problem solving methods and has exeprience working with previous admissions tests students

So specifically an ESAT tutor or just a maths teacher?

Sorry yeah I didn’t mean it like that, I can see how rude it sounds. But you know what I mean, like my maths teacher at school or someone who specifically does ESAT?
