if you want to build your intuition more try doing some amc or unsw math comp questions. There are far better resources for that sort of stuff imo.
arent amc and unsw math comp based on like number theory and shit tho, isnt that kinda useless for actual school exams and hsc

Two ways to make exam questions difficult are to make the content in the topic challenging and to make you work across topics. The enrichment questions are generally along the lines of the first way. The more content you cover, the more scope there is for the second way.

eh they get useful here and there for building critical skills and reasoning. esp for 4u Imo where stuff gets a little more abstract (predominantly in mechs and complex)

yep; people who do well in amc/math comp are usually sr level or near sr level and if they don't sr it's because of sillies (cough cough mr 7/10 mcq)
