I distinctly recall single-variable algebra in elementary school here in Poland. It may vary from country to country.

  What age was that? I'm wondering if something was lost in translation (no two countries I hear about have exactly the same school system so the terms don't line up), or if Poland just did algebra sooner than the UK? Edit: also, where might I find some old Polish example exams and marking schemes? ChatGPT is inherently multilingual, so I might as well.

    Elementary school is (or used to be back when I was there) 1-6th grades, and in 6th grade children are 12 years old, I believe. There used to be something called a 6th-grade exam (testing both polish and math) that everyone took before going to middle school, which is what I was looking at before. Though some of these questions may be in the training set, so I would advise to scramble the numbers. Here's an example: https://arkusze.pl/sprawdzian-szostoklasisty-probny-operon-jezyk-polski-i-matematyka-2017/ https://arkusze.pl/sprawdzian-szostoklasisty-probny-operon-j...

      Thanks! :) This thread is no longer on my first page of comments, so I may forget to reply, but I've downloaded those and do intend to test it against those exams, and will put the write up here: https://github.com/BenWheatley/Studies-of-AI https://github.com/BenWheatley/Studies-of-AI
