I don’t think it applies once you incorporate other courses that you’re taking. Yeah to take two weeks off only focusing on one subject meanwhile your other course work is lagging behind. In my experience, working hard and wanting it bad enough boils down to how much a person is willing to sacrifice sleep and taking care of themselves

@anthonyzinnanti7933 4 месяца назад

At 56, I took my first math class since 1989; pre-calculus, which I finished this past December. Pre-calculus here is a semester course and I finished with a 94.15%. It was not easy. Like mentioned in the video here, it is "total immersion" in study. If you're going to work in computational matters, physics, etc., there is a mastery of the subject that goes far beyond just passing tests. Over break, it is devising a curriculum to stay up on logarithms, trigonometry, exponents - the basics - to stay sharp for calculus. Detailed and organized notes are absolutely critical. I would tab each class's notes and my study notes, so I could refer back. And, I would go to office hours for help working out those ratty little problems that seem impossible. It was kind of a kick; like, "Who's this old guy perusing the Math Department." Reading material prior to class is also essential to stay ahead of the curve and get the most out of what is being taught. You must have some idea of what is going to be taught before having it presented. When you get organized and prepared to this degree, you find that the subject matter is very distilled, and you see the connections. Epiphany: The student of calculus is forever a student of algebra and trigonometry. If I can do this after being away from undergraduate school for nearly 35 years, you can do it. I enjoy this channel. Thanks for making these videos.

"If you aim high and you miss you're probably still going to do pretty well." This is more than a lesson to pass your mathematics class. I've always aimed high, even as a kid, but because of that I never failed. But I never reached that high standard and it killed me until I just gave up trying and settled for passing. I stopped challenging myself way too early. So when a real challenge finally came, first year of university, and I failed for the first time, it shattered me extremely. Held me back for years, and I'm still trying to pick up the pieces. I've made peace with my poor decisions and I'm trying to clean it up, and I was going to start shooting for high standards again. But that probably would've made me crash again as I already tried that and failed. But now I realize I must both shoot for high standards AND be content with where I landed, rather than trying for one or the other.

@UnconventionalReasoning 4 месяца назад

Before tackling the questions, start by going through the material in the chapter twice. First, read through to "get the lay of the land". The second pass, take notes. This is critical. When students who are struggling try to do problems without having taken notes first, they're setting themselves up for failure. The student who is doing better has either taken notes or has yet to reach their "Smart Student Syndrome" wall. In each block of questions in the chapter, select one problem. It usually has numbers, set those aside and replace them with identifiers ["variables"]. Do the problem slowly and carefully. Do it twice more in the next two days. Then look through the other questions in the block, identify how they are exactly the same, with different values for the identifiers. With the ones which are slightly different, identify the way to algebraically manipulate the question which has been solved to make it the same as the other ones. This will help * see the connections * identify the patterns * create the structures which, overall, makes the questions fit into a single problem category. And now the entire category will be understood.

I was very shy when I went to university...I felt inferior to everyone...I had a bad case of "imposter syndrome". The result was that I messed around and wasted time and failed all my classes. I just felt hopelessly out of my depth all the time, and felt I couldn't ask anyone for help because they'd think I was stupid...everyone else just seemed orders of magnitude cleverer than me. As I've grown older, I've realised that my problem was "confidence", not "stupidity" (not helped by the fact that some of my peers deliberately undermined my confidence...something else I didn't realise at the time) and work ethic (or lack thereof). I should have made more of myself, and I regret it now...

@kingdom3221 14 дней назад

This is some fake news. Look. I agree with the video. You can be a top class student. You can catch up but there is something that makes it impossible. The courage. The courage to actually do it. I've had so many things in my masters courses where time is not the deciding factor. I could spend 10 hours on a single thing and i would not get it. Because there was something i needed to learn before that would make the question laughably easy. I simply missed some crucial information but I don't know that I missed it. So I didnt know what I needed to know. I don't know the solution even if I am staring at it. So the real (my)advice is. Drop the ego and ask someone 15 dumb question. So you can actually get through to 15 semi-dumb questions. And then you can get to 15 good questions. And then you are in a position where spending more time really helps. Last thing. In the us you are paying so much in student fees. Make the money worth it. If the teacher is not annoyed by you you are doing it wrong. Make them work for your money. They are paid to tolerate your annoying questions. And hell they mostly actually like it. They like it to help. Even the ones that are annoying. Now. The thing is I didnt even follow my own advice. It's good advice but if no one is willing to do it it's bad advice. So I agree with this video and I wholeheartedly disagree as well.

@Aaalllyyysssaaaaa 4 месяца назад

Can confirm. I have ADHD and autism, and I didn't have any supports in school, and I basically slipped through the cracks and ended up in grade 12 knowing almost nothing in math. I would have failed pretty much any grade of math. Then I had a 2 week diploma prep course that was actually ADHD friendly, and I basically learned all of highschool math in two weeks. In Canada diploma exams were worth half of your grade. I got 25% on the course work and 95% on the diploma exam, and ended up squeaking by with a pass. 😂🎉🎉 May not be a good pass, but I no longer identify as bad at math, and it is a good feeling.

@Aaalllyyysssaaaaa 3 месяца назад

@@Dopevibesx For me the thing that helped was that it was in person and condensed. I was undiagnosed back then and medication and therapy helps a lot more than the course delivery. The material being condensed helped me work around the problems I was having, but it wasn't really a healthy coping mechanism haha. It got me through but it was really horrible and stressful. Now that I'm in therapy and on medication I don't need to get so stressed in order to do the work I need to do. It just doesn't feel as foggy and horrible and stressful because I know how to structure things for myself from the therapy, and the medication gives me more fuel in the tank to actually pull the trigger and sit down with my books.

@Aaalllyyysssaaaaa 3 месяца назад

@@playtops3605 Good luck!! It can be done! And my ADHD advice is to use the first exam as a deadline to force yourself to study, but secretly make your real goal to bomb this test, just get whatever you get, but come back and pass the exam in two months. The reason you can only cram, as opposed to study slowly when you have untreated ADHD is because the pressure of the imminent deadline makes your brain have extra neurotransmitters to deal with the crisis, which is a similar effect to taking ADHD medication, and it makes our brains work more similarly to neurotypicals, like we can just decide to get to work. We have trouble working when the deadline is not imminent, and when there's a lot of negative emotions that we can't regulate surrounding the thing we want to focus on. So if you fail the test, but it's all part of the longer term plan, it won't be as hard to study later because it won't have all the negative emotions associated with failure stopping your brain from working. All part of the plan!

Then keep eliminating until you get to 2 or 3 subjects. Go into college with these 3 in mind, and get your feet wet with your basic core requirements courses. Then after a semester or two then you can "declare your major" by eliminating the remaining two less favorable subjects based on your nearly acquired college experience. Also remember, that you can always change your major later. I changed twice ( i had 3 different majors) and I finally finished in 5 1/2 years, so it didn't take too long. You are young, take your time. You got this.

I was in advanced math throughout middle and high school, but started to struggle with trigonometry. I lost my focus and convinced myself it was too far above my head for me to get an A. I made mostly Cs and Ds throughout the year...until the final exam. I told myself I would end on a high note, and refused to stop studying and practicing until it clicked and I could do every problem in the review section. I was serious, committed, and determined to accomplish my goal. For about two weeks-EXACTLY WHAT HE PROMISES IN THIS VIDEO-I did nothing but practice trig. I didn’t just get an A on the final exam, I got an A+. I did so well that I was actually worried that my teacher would think I had cheated. He didn’t, because he saw the change in my attitude and performance in the classroom those last two weeks. I still remember how proud he was. I will never forget that experience. YOU CAN DO IT.

@Caritoooo 2 месяца назад

Thanks for the encouragement. I’ve had many times in my life were I’ve been told that I was not capable of doing something. My algebra teacher in high school told me to avoid taking trigonometry/pre calculus which was the next level. So I followed his advice… however, math was one of the subjects that I enjoyed, and I wanted to prove him that I could do it, so I went to community college and pursued electrical engineering. I did struggle at first, but I learned that I need to grind and put in the hours to be successful. Now, I’m an electrical engineer making six figures salary.

@ndotl 4 месяца назад

You have to grind it out. You need to read X number of pages and do the problems to catch up. It is not about the course, it is about graduation. When I was in this situation I asked myself, "how bad did I want to graduate". That made it easy to spend 4-6 hours on a Saturday studying just one subject.

I can confirm, I was in a solid-state physics course for my first semester in my PhD and I failed every test up until the final where I passed with a C meaning I would have had to make a B or higher to bring my average up that much. I didn’t think I was smart enough. I was totally disillusioned from the program and getting out of bed rest from being hospitalized didn’t make it easy but I was so determined to pass I worked with my TA every chance I got and I gave a great PPT on quantum entanglement too. At some level, it’s more dedication and follow-through than talent. I hate to say it but some of us aren’t equipped to really push through the frustrated feeling dumb parts. It strikes at our egos the most when we feel that’s all we have, sometimes. Especially as academics. I’m proud to say I realized I’m more than that and I let go of frustrating blocks of not understanding and push on. It also helps to have strong arms, too lol. Having more tenets to base confidence off of helps. I do still regret that I didn’t internalize this in undergrad but, give me two weeks and I’ll get to where I thought I should have gone by now 😜

I don’t really have an issue regarding math currently, but I’ve hit a real rock bottom in life and I couldn’t figure out by myself what it was about my mindset that was stopping me from TRYING to make my life better. I’ve been trying to fight off this mindset of not caring about what happens in my life anymore because I’ve encountered so many failures in the past several years and have been feeling like I can never improve of recover. “It’s about how bad you want it.” That really struck a chord with me. In all the times I HAVE succeeded, this was the mindset that carried me through. I think success really is just about believing that you can do it and reaffirming how much you want something as you grind through it. Thank you for reintroducing this mindset back to my life.

A few months ago I worked through the first chapter of Michael Corral's "elementary calculus". I told myself to do every exercise. Even the first basic chapters took me so long that I got demotivated and put in a break of a few months now :D Then I did a Khan Academy course on Calculus and multivariable calculus and went through the exercises like crazy. That's when I realized I actually learned something (along with confidence, speed and competence) even though it appeared to me like a sluggish pace and actually like failing. It made a difference. Now I'm back at it and I won't mind the frustrating speed (because yeah, it's still frustrating), because I know now that big effort will surely not be in vain.

I had forgotten almost all the calculus I learned as an undergraduate and now had to use calculus to prove the expected mean and variances of different distributions. A lot of time was spent reviewing lecture notes and examples from my textbook, taking a step backwards to understand the calculus, and then coming back to the concept armed with enough calculus to keep me moving forward through the course.

As a kid i was terrible at math- as an adult i didn’t improve much. like i had to repeat basic algebra in high school WITH a tutor. BUT… 2 years ago i went back to school and had to take statistics for my psych degree. hardest thing i’ve ever tried to learn. I had 3 different tutors that i saw every week. I passed! i wanted it… i needed it. Here’s what helped- I heard someone say “ If you don’t understand something, go back because you missed a step.” I apply this to everything now. It also revealed something about my lifelong math struggle. I couldn’t figure out why I could memorize so well and get great grades in every other subject and memorize all the math formulas but still get the problems wrong. Because the step i missed as a kid was that I never mastered basic math! I never should’ve been allowed to move on until mastering it. Now I may have dyscalculia and inattentive adhd, but that doesn’t mean it would have been impossible but it would take a lot longer. but that’s the step i needed most. So please, if you’re struggling. Don’t feel bad or think you’re stupid. You just missed a step in the understanding process. Go back and find out what it was. ❤

I was so behind, I couldn't catch up on the topics, the first month was pure hell and I failed the first exam completely. That triggered me into a frenzy and it only took 3 days to catch the basics, then another week to catch up to the topics that I failed at the last exam, Another week and I was basically on par with my classmates. The problem is not how hard it is to learn, its finding the drive to learn it.

Then, i thought of using this new skill to help with my math classes. I would translate the homework into basics language and got all the answers right, of course. I remember once, not being able to translate the teachers quiz into basics….so i lied down on my bed and let my mind wander for an hour or so then suddenly, i just saw the answer in my minds eye.

Throughout my BSc I busted my balls with inefficient learning for exams, weeks even months ahead. But I wasn’t really studying….for my MSc I did literally this. Two weeks before, sit down, do the work, no distraction. Passed all exams with flying colors.

Thank you for these videos! They're so helpful. I'm 45 and taking Trig after being out of the classroom for 23 years. I'm more prepared to learn now. Great work you're doing!
