Math















Lair has made an important decision regarding his math upgrading.

Since September, on his own and with the help of Dwayne , Lawrence has been tying get himself up to speed learning Math 10 so he could take Math 20 in February.

... Well, it's down to the wire and he has decided, although he is understanding most chapters, he's still lost on some... He feels his Math 10 platform is not strong enough to stand on for Math 20. With Math being a constant in his future education he wants to ensure he has a solid base now instead of flailing or faking it like he did in high school.

It was a hard decision because it throws him back a semester to starting at Mount Royal... BUT, in the grand scheme of things, really, what is one semester?

I fully support him and am proud that he has the foresight to see his limitations.

Math is definitely not easy for everyone. Knowing his limits may put you behind now but will put you so much further when it comes to taking classes that require a strong math background.

No sense wasting good money on courses you need and could fail.

Kudos to him for wanting to stand on the mountain instead of the rock :)
