Most Secondary two students would have received your streaming results, stating the subject combinations for Sec 3 for year 2010, haven’t you?
I hope you like the combination as you are going to eat, sleep and breathe those subjects.
For Secondary three students, I hope most if not all of you have been promoted to Sec 4. Pat yourself if you have done well. If you haven’t done well, what are you going to do this holiday?
Regardless if you are Sec three or ‘O’ level students next year, are you ready to rock & roll?

We are excited for 2010!

You don’t have to do everything during this holidays, you just need to do 1 – 2 right things while enjoying your break. I’m not even talking about doing your holiday assignments.

  • If your concepts aren’t great, build them up by re-learning them!
  • If you aren’t practicing enough, start working on sums, doing your five/ten years series!
  • If you hate the subject or have no interest, use this holiday to decide if you are intending to continue or give up, find time sit down and read about the subject, get a friend to explain the annoying concepts to you

“The moment you say ‘I know everything’ is the end of your growth.”

If you like to experience learning with a difference, spend your holidays more meaningfully, enrich yourself in these ‘O’ level Math or Chemistry, we would like to extend the invitation to join us at our December Holiday Mastery Workshops & Essential Concepts Revision Programme!

This is a common mistake I notice in my O level A-Math essential concepts revision workshop.

Solve the following equation:

First, you must identify the type of question since different types of question require different strategies.
It’s a different log-log question.
Strategy required: Change base.

image
Change base formula used.
Reason for changing to base 2: Between changing to base 2 or x, we choose base 2 as x is an unknown, we choose not to work with THE unknown most of the time, don’t we?

Since we observe that there is a common term (log2 x),
image
image Did you observe the fatal mistake (It’s #7 Common mistake in Logarithm?

image
The correct way to do the substitution would be:

image
Solve the quadratic equation for y. Substitute the value back to find x.

Remember to check for validity of answers.

Slide1 Many parents called me to ask “What is the workshop all about?”

Well, this workshop as the name suggests, Essential Concepts Revision Workshop, not Sec 4 jumpstart lessons (Differentiation and the the rest of the Sec 4 topics will be taught next year in the Ultimate Leap Programme)

Essential Concepts Revision Workshop will cover extensively the following modules

  • Surds
  • Indices
  • Logarithms
  • Quadratic Equations & Functions
  • Trigonometry (*All time “favourite”!)

If you happen to have the latest GCE ‘O’ level A-Math exam papers, 40% of the marks!( It’s heavy) are solely devoted to testing students on the mentioned modules! All these are Sec 3 modules which students MUST have the solid foundation before they even talk about What’s Up in Sec 4 A-Math.
