A-maths insanity
-
In my opinion, A-Maths is 100% useless. -
drop it lor, with your intelligence. probably wont do you any good in the future anyways, since you wont be getting a scientific jobOriginally posted by YummyGummy:Anyone here have drop their A maths subject before? This subject is just driving me insane and i feel like Strangling it to death.
I have never passed a single test or exam before and just before the holidays my teacher ask me to think about dropping it. I know its a stupid subject but i have heard that lots of ppl have gotten Bs of their Os ever thought they have never really done well for it before so I don't want to make a stupid decision.How?

You need any help? i've been giving part time tuition since '99 and i dont charge alot for 'o' lvl students.Originally posted by YummyGummy:How come i ask for advice everybody come here boast instead.
i know i am not as smart as you all but still...............
i like maths and always have good scores in my school times cos i always find ways to make things easy for myself to understand and apply to questions from different topics, and i impart these to my students. Most of them who listen to me and remember what i said will improve on their grades.. their main weakness is careless and often got marks deducted.
For your case, i think since u didnt complain about E maths, i assume your main fundamentals in maths are there? If its only a problem of tackling those tricky A maths topic, then it would be easier to help u improve your grades to distinction level. If your basic fundamentals is not good, will need more time to grind them out, and considering the amount of time left, the realistic target of improvement would be B3 or B4...

For those who are suffering in A math. I could coach you. Am doing tution at centre thus may be for once in every 2 weeks. If you are willing to work. it not too late now. Been there done it and seen it before.
Maybe you dun understand what you are doing, that why you can do well.
Math is the training of the mind. More than 50 % of us never use anything we learnt above sec 3. However those that can do well in math tend to be able to solve reall life problem. -

If you dont score A for Math, then which subjects are you confident you can score A??!!!
i got A1 for both my Math (A and E)
because i figure out its the easiest
compare to chemistry, physic, geography,english, chinese
E.Math isnt very helpful if u go JC
Engineering, Computing, Science emphasise alot on math
If you go uni, the math there is like 100X more tough
(unless u get into Arts/Business faculty)
Better get help now, dont give up
Be focus, decide now where you want to be in future.
If you are not going into Science, then dont bother chem/phy
Math however is an impt subject, a deciding criteria in many modules for your future studies... -
Thanks for your offer to help but IÂ’ve got A maths tuition already. That's the bad thing about it; IÂ’m trying my best already! I do all the tys Qns before test but when the test comes i forget everything (this happens on my A maths test only). Any way if you don't like A maths now, donÂ’t u think it will be a little dumb to try to go to like Engineering courses later. I donÂ’t really want anything to do with A maths.Originally posted by Cristiano@Red_Devils.com:You need any help? i've been giving part time tuition since '99 and i dont charge alot for 'o' lvl students.

get tuition for your a maths.
think you need it. if you only sec3 1st sem or 2nd sem, wait till you finish 2nd sem results to see if you really need to drop....but if really need to its actually better to drop, then got more time for other subjects.
