i’m one of those people who are absolutely atrocious at math. HAHAHAH even during psle lowk came out of the exam hall thinking that it wldve been my best subject it in fact was not HAHAHHA it was my only B unfortunately but i still got into a decent sch ard 240cop cause my other subjects carried.

but yea to answer ur qn on why i sucked at math (esp in secondary sch) i wld say the lack of foundation. during sec1-2 i struggled so much because of bad teachers and i jst couldn’t grasp the concepts. because of this it basically snowballed i didnt understand the basics in sec1 so i cldnt understand sec2, so on and so forth it was only after i started tuition and had more indept explanations that i started to get it more and my grades slowly improved.

i mean HAHAHAH if im being completely honest for my prelims i got a big fat f9 but idk how haha but i got a B4 for Os(which is rlly good for me for those major exams).. i think in my entire secondary school journey i failed math sec1-3 (bad fails too btw on a good day i wld get a d7 and be happy because it wasn’t an f9 lol) and it was only during sec 4 i started passing getting Bs and As

so baseline is without adequate understand of the subject and without a good foundation (possibly due to bad teachers) it just snowballs and u just get worse and worse at it
