Re: about examination

[BSCG programme Mathematics]

The entire course material is important for the examination. Otherwise, why should we prepare it?

The questions in assignments are tougher because they are open book essentially.

None of the courses in the first semester or second semester is supposed to be concept heavy. Just focus on understanding the methods now. Just solve as many different kinds of examples as possible now. You will understand things better when you study Real Analysis. 

The main problem is attention span. There are so many devices competing for your attention. Your have to slowly reduce the time you spend on them. Only you know how to do it. 

When we were studying, we had only one television channel. Programmes were telecast only in the evening. Movies were telecast only in the weekends. We didn't have a phone at home, what to talk of mobile phone?

So, any comparison with us will be unfair to you.

Please reply, if you faved same difficulties in your days, when I can't get a topic in my head, i jump and after that close the book. I don't want to, just let me know if everyone goes through the same and get a habit or m i in danger?

Did you encounter same difficulties as i am going through(keeping away the self study parr) in understanding the concepts, because the abstract scenario is a lot different than what the book is trying to feed you. How did your journey take place, you could share your experience, so that i can draw motivation.

Self-study is not easy.  Please see the links I sent on study skills,
especially on SQ3R
method.  We are not taught these skills at any level.  Here is video
on a well known system of
note taking, the Cornell system:

Hope you will find it useful.

Thia is becoming so frustrating cuz i see lectures on youtube and those doesn't match the books, yeah i understand sequence and all may differ, sub headings of the book is not friendly, i feel like i am reading from in between whenever i read. I don't get the author, but this is not the case with another subject be it physics, chemistry. Please suggest me how can i cope up, cuz i am an average child want to know the mysteries of mathematics, i would love to get all the lessons in my head, but i fall short, eveytime i attempt to persuade myself to read it once again, but i hardly get the concept. This is huge i never faced this earlier, i passed my intermediate from CISCE board, please tell me where am i failing. Help.
