 ‘O’-Level Elementary Math

For students to master each topic in ‘O’-Level  Elementary Math, I would recommend the following series of books:

1.    ‘O’ Level Elementary Mathematics Companion

Publisher: Casco Publications Pte Ltd; Author: Lee-Ann Goh

It comes in two volumes. Book 1 provides notes, examples and practice questions for Arithmetic, Algebra, Coordinate Geometry and Graphs. Book 2 provides notes, examples and practice questions for Geometry, Trigonometry, Sets, Matrices, Vectors and Statistics. Each book comes with fully worked-out solutions to all the practice questions.

How to use these books?

Use the two books to learn or revise the theories of each topic and analyse the examples to understand and remember how different types of problems are solved.

Then attempt to answer as many questions as you can in the Revision Exercises provided and after that, mark your own solutions by comparing them with the worked solutions. If your answers are incorrect, seek to understand where, how and why you got them wrong.

If you often find yourself not understanding some parts of the worked solutions, then, yes, you’d probably need to consult a tutor. But you can first try asking your school teachers or friends first.

If you have mastered most of the topics in ‘O’-Level and you need practice papers, then I would recommend that you complete the papers in the following book:

2.   G.C.E. ‘O’ Level Mathematics Paper 1 and Paper 2

Publisher: Casco Publications Pte Ltd; Author: Lee-Ann Goh

It has 10 ‘Trial Exam’ papers, with fully worked-out solutions for each paper. You should attempt each paper in the time allocated (2hrs for Paper 1 and 2.5hrs for Paper 2). Then mark your own solutions and reflect on your errors and learn from them.

3. Pass With Distinction, Elementary Mathematics (By Topic) with Solutions

Publisher: Shinglee Publishers Pte Ltd; Author: Teh Keng Seng, Loh Cheng Yee

 

  ‘O’-Level Additional Mathematics

For students to master each topic in A. Math, I would recommend the following series of books:

  1. Pass With Distinction, Additional Mathematics (By Topic) with Solutions

Publisher: Shinglee Publishers Pte Ltd; Author: L. K. Lee

  1. OLevel Additional Mathematics Revision Guide 3 and 4

Publisher: Pearson Longman; Author: Aven Choo

How to use these books?

Use the two books to learn or revise the theories of each topic and analyse the examples to understand and remember how different types of problems are solved.

Then attempt to answer as many questions as you can in the Practice Exercises provided and after that, mark your own answers. If your answers are incorrect, seek to understand where, how and why you got them wrong.

If you have mastered most of the topics and you need practice papers, then I would recommend that you complete the papers in the following book:

  1. ‘O’ Level Additional Mathematics Revision Guide Paper 1 and 2

Publisher: Dolphin Publications

It has 14 challenging ’Revision Exam’ papers, with fully worked-out solutions for each paper. You should attempt each paper in the time allocated (2hrs for Paper 1 and 2.5hrs for Paper 2). Then mark your own solutions and reflect on your errors and learn from them.

 

 ‘O’ Level Chemistry

For students to master each topic in ‘O’-Level Chemistry, I would recommend the following series of books:

  1. Understanding Chemistry ‘O’ Level

Publisher: GLM Pte Ltd; Author: Li Geok Jin

  1. Pass With Distinction: Chemistry (By Topic)

Publisher: Shinglee Publications; Author: Sean Chua

  1. ‘O’ Level Chemistry Workout (Structured and Free-Response Questions)

Publisher: Pearson Longman; Author: Lim Eng Wah, JGR Briggs

  1. Effective Guide to ‘O’ ‘Level Chemistry (2nd Edition)

Publisher: Pearson Longman; Author: Lim Eng Wah

 

 ‘O’ Level Physics

For students to master each topic in ‘O’-Level Physics, I would recommend the following series of books:

  1. ‘O’ Level Challenging Drill Questions Physics

Publisher: Cosmic Services; Authors/Compilers: Thomas Bond, Chris Hughes

  1. Pass With Distinction: Physics (By Topic)

Publisher: Shinglee Publications; Author: Tan Kim Seng

Posted in Exam Results

My (our) students’ O-Level (2012) results released in 2013

Ok la, this year I shall break tradition by posting whichever results my last year’s students inform me of. One has just come in. I will update throughout the week as I get more results (sometimes students are just forgetful).

Physics: Luke, A2 (from b4 avg, failed in sec 3 (his mum just told me), St Pat’s sch, Farkhanda, B3 (from fail avg)

Chemistry (under Mr Anthony): Charmaine A2; Bandar A2; Luke, B3; Farkhanda, B4. (from fail avg)

Science: Ben, B3.

A. Math: Ameerul, C5 (from fail avg, Yuhua sec); Loges, B3 (from C5-C6 avg, ACS(I)); Ravin, B3 (from fail avg); Rahim, B3 (from C5-C6 avg); Jin Yong, A1 (from B4 avg); Farkhanda, B3 (from fail avg).

Math: Ali Zul, B3 (from C5-C6 avg); Colin, B3 (from C5)

This year, I shall also break tradition in another way, by posting a testimonial from a student, Ravin. Below is the exact words that he smsed to me at 10.06 am on 11 Jan 2013:

“My plan is to do engineering. More to aerospace or aeronautical. I will put my first few choices as that the rest I’m still thinking. Last choice will be MI. Yes Mr Ilyasa, a lot of improvement. I did not put in a lot of effort for A-math and my sci in secondary school. In fact I was failing but I’m happy to see that I got Bs and A for my math and sci but it’s really disappointing to see a 6 for EL. Thank you for your help Mr Ilyasa. You make lesson so fun and you taught me a lot. : ) “

Well, he taught me a lot too.

Waiting for more updates from more students …..

Ilyasa, M.Ed., PGDE, full-time tutor, ex-sch teacher (h/p: 97860411)
