This is a Sutton/SET-style multiple choice mathematics mock test (Mock 3). Time allowed: 40 minutes. There are 30 questions, each worth 1 mark (30 marks in total). For each question, choose the single best answer from options A to E and mark it clearly on a separate answer sheet. Calculators are not allowed. Work through the questions in order. Some of the later questions are more challenging multi-step problems, so keep an eye on the time and do not spend too long on any one question. Do all working on rough paper, not on the answer sheet.
