Dr.He in Box Hill any good?

[thisongaintgottaname]

"No too hard"
"100% wrong"

Two phrases you will hear too many times.

SO TRUE...also

"this...year 8, year nine maths"
"perimural"
"you may argue"
"this is not careless error"
"wector" (vector)

gotta love his fobby accent

Hahahaha, and also his peculiar analogies, often involving Box Hill and Melbourne High. xD

And talking about the difference between Whitehorse Road and asymptotes.

Thought i would share this with you guys this is from the Dr He fb group .


For those who are currently enrolled in or have once attended DHMC (Dr He Maths Coaching).

You know you belong to this group if you:

- Barely passed the entrance exam and felt terrible because you had never in your entire life gotten such a low mark before

- Eventually got used to the low marks

- Did your homework the day before/on the day/in the car to your class

- Got owned by his homework

- Looked at the top scorers board every week before entering the classroom. (You secretly hoped to have your name up there at least once)

- Noticed on the top scorers board that his son is always up there and is owning the rest of the class by an average of 20%.

- Realized that everyone in your class is Asian

- Realized that everyone in your class will probably be doctors or lawyers some day

- Can remember the words
'Ｌｏｃａｌｍａｘｉｍｕｍｉｓｎｏｔｔｈｅｍａｘｉｍｕｍ'
in that fobby accent because it has been drilled into your brain already ...

- Yet you still can't bother to apply it in your homework/school outcomes (and even in the exam)

- Remember his jokes and his weird analogies

- Dreaded his trial exams that were usually twice as long as the normal VCAA exams

- Found it amusing that he bagged the heck out of day-school teachers

- listened as he labeled his daughter as "less gifted in maths" even though she was on the top scorer board at least once ever 2 weeks

- listened as he reminisced of the days when he was a professional mathemetician

i'm sorry i can't comment of the actual exam as i got in bcs i got in on a fluke westpac score

LOL there's no such thing as "distinction" and "high distinction" on the AMO anymore.
There may never have been. In 1991, the gold/svr/bronze certs were implemented.
I got in pretty easily too haha didn't take the entrance exam or whatever it is, though I don't go to DHMC anymore.

[Andiio]

Never hurts to try, good luck! I reckon, just show ALL working out in detail and you're all set

[Andiio]

Not sure what questions are gonna be on there though; what if there's stuff that I don't know how to do? D:

Assuming you're trying out for next year's classes, are you intending to apply for Methods 3/4 (Level 3) or Specialist (Level 4, I believe)? Yeah, has anyone here actually done the entrance exams?

[Andiio]

I'm trying to join now so that I get a general idea of how he teaches Since i'm in Year 11 and doing MM 1/2 + GMA 1/2

Yeah, could anyone who has done the year 11 entrance exam(s) please give us some insight/advice?

[wildareal]

Wow this guy sounds Awesome.

[crayolé]

Does he teach any lower than MM 1/2?
