Mathematic (Maths Subject)

Mathematics is really a disease to many students from all angles, in universities, collages, and both high and primary schools. But the disease is severe in high schools, such that sometimes its seems incurable. Girls are the most affected with this disease. When a student joins form 1 he/she is told that chemistry is the hardest subject, but believe me that feeling comes out if the student is good enough to understand in class.

Once in form two students start developing a "stop understanding" effort to the subject, not because they are weak but because they scored it poorly. The subject becomes one of their least read because it doesn't have stories, pictures and many more attractions as other subjects do in their respective textbooks. Actually its boring to read mathematics, but you don't have a choice.

Mathematics if not practiced it will give a student a very hard time once in form four. Picture this example; if you are given to solve a very simple equation like X+2=4 and you don't score this because you lack practice!, there is no way on earth you are going to solve this equation X+2Y-67=3X-Y+40. That is why you will forever fail as you progress to form four. When they said that practice makes perfect, they did not guess they meant it.

If you are in form four and you are a D material its never late for you. OK you cant score an A in your final examination that is for sure, but you can beat the law of the jungle (C+). I mean it, i.e survival for the fittest. Don't be left our of the career program just because you scored a D in mathematics. I scored a B+ from an E in form one because i had a positive mind and used to listed to encouragements from my teachers. This is the only subject that holds your career, because if you are an A material definitely you good in other subjects as it opes your mind.

Let us cure the disease;

• Never plan to read the subject, plan to practice it because it is not a novel!; 
• Learn to do corrections on your own, this will help you to discover your weakness; 
• Have a positive mind towards the subject because it was never supposed to be a disease to you you developed it on your own, the same way you can do away with it on your own; 
• Do a few calculations with your friends in class because that will help you to master the course; 
• Learn to practice on your own, i.e. before you read your biology, English or any other subject, do some few calculations because it will boost your ability to perform well; 
• Don't give yourself challenges you cant manage, just start with simple equations like X+2=4, then you will proceed to hard equation like X+2Y-67=3X-Y+40.

Mathematics love or hate it, its the subject that will give you a way to your career. That is each and every course requires a pass in mathematics i.e C+ and above.So you better wake up from your silly and deep sleep that your cant manage to pass "MATHEMATICS" .
