J2 H2 Math 2023 WA1 Grade A
Q: What difficulties you had in Math previously?
Previously, I only managed to score an E for my H2 Math for my Promos in J1. I had difficulty understanding the questions that were posed during the examinations. I did find myself being able to start some of the questions with the appropriate methods but I was unable to complete the rest of the question. Also, the recorded school lectures were confusing as there were several instances where the lecturer glossed over the concepts which I did not understand.
Q: What did you do in your preparation for the Math WA1 exam and how was it different from last time?
In order to prepare for my Math WA1 in J2, I started by redoing the old questions which I had either previously attempted or was given in my school tutorials and tuition notes. This exercise is important to me as it allows me to verify that I am able to recall all the important methods, concepts and presentation that is required for each type of question. I was delighted that, not only was I able to get more questions right this time, but I could complete them faster, which was a great boost to my confidence. I also attempted the new questions from the examination package issued by the school, of which I am elated that I was able to achieve a higher rate of correct answers as compared to J1.
Q: What is the biggest difference that you realise after attending the Einstein Achievers’ Tuition Classes?
The tutor for my Math class made sure that each question was explained step-by-step without glossing over any of the concepts required to answer the question. Her explanations were also a lot easier to understand as compared to my aforementioned school lectures. She also made sure that I understand every facet of the concept and is willing to clarify all my doubts before moving on.
Q: Do you feel more confident now and believe that you have the ability to achieve more in Math as compared to last time?
I feel that doing well for this test has increased my confidence by an appreciable amount, but I too am mindful that past performance does not guarantee future results so I must continue to work hard and not rest on my laurels.
Q: What will you do in J2 to keep up your consistency and performance?
I will make sure that, unlike during J1, I will watch all the school lecture recordings on time so that I can catch all the parts I do not understand early and get them clarified in a timely manner. Also, I will diligently complete all of my school assignments instead of simply referencing the work of my peers.
I will continue the good aforementioned revision practices that I had used for this test and I would also begin on doing timed practices to make sure that I am able to complete the questions under exam stress conditions.
I will not drop the ball again.
