IPY1/JH1/SEC1 (2025) MATH ALGEBRA & INDICES HEAD START

IPY1/Sec 1 Math is heavy on algebraic manipulation and logic, as compared to the PSLE which uses models and units. The KEY to acing IPY1/Sec1 Math is to understand fully how to deal with NEGATIVE NUMBERS as well as ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSIONS and INDICES (which is an O-level topic tested in lower secondary IP). This course will EQUIP students with the necessary skills to keep up or stay ahead of the Y1/S1 math syllabus.
