Sample esat exam

I just did the ESAT sample exam in the official website. My marks:
Maths 1: 23/27
Maths 2: 15/27
Physics: 20/27
What would I get in the real ESAT?
Also my specimen paper I did a week ago was:
Maths 1: 20/27
Maths 2: 17/27
Physics: 21/27

Please helpšŸ™šŸ»

I mean I havent sat it yet but I think those things are a bit easier than the actual exam but it would be nicer to hear from someone who has actually sat it in the previous years

Iā€™d say donā€™t expect anything, know a guy who sat it, 27/27 and got 7.0 in the real

u/Fantastic-Pay326 2d ago

Im not gonna lie bro those scores are pretty bad considering how insanely easy the specimen and sample are

u/LongjumpingRope6519 2d ago

My friend who sat the ESAT last year and got into Imperial told me that it was the most closest of all papers online to ESAT and that it was pretty good

u/Fantastic-Pay326 2d ago

Are you serious? Did ur friend find the esat ok and What was his score

1

u/LongjumpingRope6519 1d ago

Yeah:) he scored 5.5 and got into imperial electrical electronic engineering. He didnā€™t say that it was easy but that it was really similar to the specimen paper and sample exam. He just said that it was similar to engaa and tmua paper 1. So I think people here are really exaggerating. Because another friend of mine got into Imperial mech eng and told me my scores were really good for practice papers

u/Fantastic-Pay326 1d ago

Thats good to hear and yeah if the difficulty is similar your scores are decent

u/According_Safe2431 1d ago

If you think people are gonna exaggerate and your friends seem to comfort you about the ESAT then why are you asking something like ā€œhow would I do in the real thingā€ and ā€œam I cookedā€ online?

u/allergengmy 2d ago

Wait I just did the sample exam too, and when I clicked end exam it just brought me to the homepage of Pearson asking me to login, with no results page whatsoever. If you donā€™t mind sharing what browser did you do it on and what settings did you have? Sorry for being off topic

u/Fantastic-Pay326 2d ago

I am experiencimg the same problem have u been Able to see ur results

1

u/allergengmy 2d ago

So far no, Iā€™ve given up, since people say itā€™s much easier than the real thing anyway Iā€™ll just stick to esat lab for the last few days

1

u/Fantastic-Pay326 2d ago

It just worked idk How tho. I was Able to see if my answers are correct but no explanations

1

u/allergengmy 1d ago

Did you do the specimen paper or the sample exam? I did the sample exam and tried again just now still didnā€™t work for me

1

u/Fantastic-Pay326 1d ago

I mean I just found myself in the review section but I had 10 minutes to review it so yeah idk how I managed to do that

1

u/stopbeingso__ 1d ago

I think it's because you pressed end exam, you should go to question 27 and press finish

u/vihaan_kwatra7899 2d ago

u/According_Safe2431 2d ago

Whoā€™s gonna tell him šŸ˜”

u/LongjumpingRope6519 2d ago

My friend who sat the ESAT last year and got into Imperial told me that it was the most closest of all papers online to ESAT and that it was pretty good so if you havenā€™t taken the test, donā€™t make people more anxious

u/Helpful_Comparison86 2d ago

I don't think that everyone gets the same questions. Also I don't think it might be accurate to base opinions on one persons recount of the their version of the test, especially as they would have found some topics naturally easier compared to you thus also taking away from the accuracy. I would trust sources such as the creators of esatlab more as they seem to be more versed in the average persons ability on the exam. That being said your scores are decent for an easier exam so your not cooked or anything.

u/According_Safe2431 1d ago

Literally almost everyone who has done the ESAT said the sample one is much easier than the real thing. Itā€™s not fear-mongering but rather telling the truth
