Performing Math faster during examinations



Examinations! What is the first thing that strikes your mind when you think of exams? Is it the scores? Or is it the subject? Is it the time allotted to complete the exam??? Yes, the time is an important factor to be considered during exams, especially in subjects like math. Math questions are lengthy and tests a student on his/her speed and accuracy. It therefore becomes necessary to perform math faster in exams to be able to score good marks.



But, how does it become possible?
Follow these tips to ensure math success.

1.      Divide your time for each question
Manage your time and allot a particular time for each question or section of the paper. If you fail to do so, you may leave the question paper incomplete in spite of you knowing the solutions.

2.      Start with what you know the best
When you do so, you become confident while proceeding with the questions. As you approach the questions which were initially scary for you will automatically become simpler as you start solving them.

3.      Jot down the key formulas and rules on one separate sheet
When you note down the important formulas on one sheet (or in the rough column) right while starting the paper, it will help you refer to them instantly. This saves time to recall formulas in the mid with too many solutions going on in the mind.

4.      Perform mental arithmetic
Ensure that you know the tables well. Most of the calculations will become simpler when you know the tables and mental calculations become faster and accurate. It helps not using pen and paper thus saving time by reducing scratch work.

Activities and games indirectly enable a child practice basic (and advanced) math operations with ease, thereby increasing their calculation speed, accuracy, and concentration skills. Boredom is then, no more a concern.

2.      Exercise and Relax
Math is not only a play of mental activities, but it is a lot more. For efficiently solving math problems, it is necessary to have a healthy mind in a healthy body.
