Can you please show me some examples? Thank you, A Student in U.S.A. Practicing speed problems is an efficient way to get better at math, but there are several methods that can be more effective depending on your specific needs. If you want to cram before a test, plugging the answer key into Quizlet can help with pacing yourself and sticking with practice materials throughout the day without burning out on any one particular type of problem too quickly. This way you are working on the kinds of problems that appear on the test without spending too much time on any one type. A better way to study math is to look at past tests that have been administered, because these will show you what kinds of questions might appear in test form yet are not in practice problems or textbooks. This way you can guess what kinds of twists question writers might put on the problems without knowing the answer key. If you see what kinds of methods people are using to solve problems, this will help train your brain to develop instinctive knowledge about the skills required for solving math problems. Since you are not trying to memorize problems, you will be able to focus on the skills that you really need to learn instead of figuring out what kind of math problem someone is trying to trick you into solving. When cramming for a test, try to stay away from high-frequency topics because these will make it harder for your brain to learn the material. There is an optimal frequency level for covering information in practice materials and textbook material. Use this analogy: if someone asks you about which numbers are prime, your brain should know about primes above 100, but would likely only know the first few primes before it starts repeating questions. If you practice a lot on primes above 100, they might begin to seem more random and you will struggle to recall primes higher than 100. If you memorize basically anything, your brain will start to focus on memorizing instead of learning the material. For example, if you spend all your time memorizing math facts instead of learning connections between them, when it comes time for test day you'll become confused about what the problem is asking unless it's presented in a memorized form. You will need to spend extra time learning how math problems that do not appear in practice materials or textbooks work if they appear on a test that you have not seen before. Often these kinds of problems appear on tests because the teacher wants to see how well you can go off-script and solve problems in a way that shows your understanding of the material. Another way to improve your math skills is by using a math tutoring service. As long as you have a tutor that has been trained specifically to prepare students for high-stakes testing, they will be able to help you improve your score by showing you tricks to solving the questions quickly and efficiently as well as by practicing pacing yourself so that you don't run out of time too early on. eccc085e13
