What is the benefits of study additional mathematics and Why wanted to study additional mathematics in SPM?
Well, Additional Mathematics is sort of halfway between O' Level Mathematics and A' Level Mathematics; though it is closer to O Level in terms of difficulty. Here in the Caribbean AddMath was a prerequisite for doing A Level Math. I say was because we no longer do CIE Exams, we follow our regional exam body CXC. It is no longer a pre-requisite for Advanced Level CXC Math, but the pursuit of AddMath at Lower Secondary level is encouraged. If you are a student aiming to study, at higher levels, Mathematics, Physics, or Engineering then I suggest you pursue a course of AddMath since it makes the transition from Lower Secondary to Upper Secondary Mathematics easier, and familiarizes one with higher level techniques at a layman level.
What is preparatory mathematics?
prepares you for higher level math classes
How does A level math compare to G.C.S.E math?
A Level Math grade - D GCSE Math Grade - A* (near full) That should speak for itself
Should my son be considered for grade 7 summer school to reinforce the grade level for language and mathematics if he is averaging 84 in both?
No, 84 is a great mark, where I live 70% is needed for college and 80+ is great, he is already working hard, don't stress him out or else his grades are going to drop, let the kid enjoy his summer =D
Is grade scores an example of ratio scales?
Grade scores are an ordinal level of measurement. A ratio level of measurement would be weight of a person or how much money a person has.
