| I went back to school at around 27. I took a handful of classes in Math and made an "A" in all of them. Math is quite easy actually. The difficult thing is learning "how" to study, which (in my opinion) is a little different than you study for other subjects. First, there is a huge amount of available resources online and many of the books have half the problems answered in the back. Use those. If you're lazy, math is hard. HERE IS THE TIP THAT MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE FOR ME: Don't study all at one time -- like in a 4 or 6 hour block of time. That's really just cramming. It's possible to get in the groove and me able to answer all the problems in your homework - while it's fresh...but then never really learn it or be able to duplicate it on a test. Study 1 hour a day and always start with a problem you think you can do first. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER - look in the back of the book before you complete it. If you have to look in the back of the book -- mark the number down and make sure that you can repeat it tomorrow without looking. Do that, you will do well in Math. |
