I wish I was better at maths. I am in core maths at my high school and usually it is easy to understand but I don't understand certain things like simultaneous equations. I am able to understand things sometimes when the teacher works them out but can't do them myself. I also want to start practicing for methods this yr in yr10 for VCE.

Public speaking and interviews

Those two things give me soooo many problems , yet... I gotta do so much of them.

Simultaneous equations is classically one of the things that bewilders Year 10 students. But if the teacher makes it clear and yet you can't do them by yourself you should provide some examples that your teacher has done as well as some that you're struggling on for a comparison.

I wish i was better at waking up directly after my alarm goes off, not pressing the snooze button nor laying in bed and reconsidering my life choices.

No sense of smell makes this skill a lot worse for me.

Hey, welcome to ATAR Notes. :)

I reckon it's great you want to keep improving. I also think it's pretty natural to be confused by some concepts; for me, Year 10 maths was when it started getting pretty tricky. Practice is what will get you ahead, here - don't give up! ;D

And this is why I set an "aspirational alarm" call me crazy but it works, most of the time
