Go above and beyond in Maths

The time frame has been extracted from another students setup but the resources have been customised. The progress you make is not guaranteed by the help you receive; it depends on the effort you put into improving the areas of maths you are currently struggling with.

The rationale behind this routine is simple: identify what you don’t know, learn the theory, and then practise it.

Test yourself

1. Complete a practice test — 50 Minutes
   Sit the test under exam conditions without using your notes, without stopping and without looking at the answers.

2. Take a break — 15–30 minutes

Mark yourself

3. Mark the test and study the theory — 1 hour
   CTRL+A, CTRL+C and paste into ChatGPT to get the answers quickly once done. Spend around 15 minutes marking the test. Then, for the remaining 45 minutes, read the relevant theory from your textbook (or from the ones I've sourced here) for every question you got wrong or struggled with. Focus on understanding why you got it wrong.
4. Take a break — 15–30 minutes

Train yourself

5. Complete targeted practice questions — 1 hour
   Work through practice questions specifically targeting the topics and skills you got wrong in the test.

Be consistent

Do this routine five days a week. If you consistently put in this effort, identify your weaknesses, and deliberately practise them, you should make significant progress towards catching up and being prepared to complete your Year 11 final exams.

The key is not simply doing more maths. It is using each test to identify exactly what you need to improve, learning the relevant theory, and then practising until you can do it confidently. Bring what you find challenging to the tutoring session.

Tips for neat math working out

• Write down what you know and what you need to find.
• Write down the formula you need before substituting values.
• Substitute known values carefully, including units.
• Do one step at a time.
• Each line should contain one substitution or one mathematical operation.
• Whatever you do to one side of =, do the same to the other side.
• Keep = signs aligned vertically.
• Follow BIDMAS/PEMDAS when calculating.
• Keep exact values (such as fractions and π) until the final step when possible.
• Include units in your final answer.
• Round only at the end, unless the question tells you otherwise.
• Check that your answer is reasonable and answers the question.
• Show enough working to make your method clear.
• Keep your working neat and organised.
• If you make a mistake, cross it out once and continue clearly.
• Do not skip important steps — clear working can earn partial marks.
