11th and 12th Grade Math Exam Prep
This course is designed for students with a solid math foundation who aim to maximize their exam performance.
Instead of a full curriculum review, the course prioritizes understanding the exam’s structure, question types, and effective problem-solving techniques.
You’ll also learn specific strategies for each section and analyze recent exam papers to identify patterns. Take your exam with confidence!
“Many students could do better in their math examination with the knowledge they have – but might feel confused by the situation or question phrasing and get lost. The new curriculum emphasizes not only subject knowledge but also comprehension and various other skills. Understanding the different types of examination questions and the ability to distinguish between them is helpful in choosing the best strategy for best results – and, of course, to reduce anxiety,” Kristīne Ševčenko, course teacher.
