Prep X Math - Vol I

by Sandeep Srivastava

Math is the easiest, yet the most powerful 'subject' to enhance your thinking, reasoning and problem-solving skills. And strong logical ability increases confidence. This is a special book for securing 100% in CBSE X board exams, 2021, as per the revised CBSE syllabus till October 12th, 2020. It is the ONLY BOOK of past papers and solution based on learning Outcomes and EACH QUESTION HAS A LOGIC AND SOLUTION. This makes the book the ONLY 100% SELF-LEARNING math book for X. This book does not necessarily require the use of any textbook for concepts because the concepts are duly presented through LOGIC in every question that is answered in the book. An advantage in Kindle e-books is that you can read nearly the first 40 pages of the book to experience the uniqueness of the book. And you will realise there is no other book like this one. Go ahead and look into the free-access pages of the book. This book has 7 chapters of the 15 chapters and the Volume II, which will be published next month will have the rest of the chapters. The unkindest cut of all That conceptual clarity and marks don't really walk hand in hand; rote and marks are better friends. Formal math education has violated the fundamental principles of 'how we learn' and robbed math of its basic character - strong logic. The consequences have been devastating for humanity - 1. Overwhelming majority of girl students are left behind in math in elementary school - this is against nature 2. Overwhelming majority of boy students also leave math behind when selecting undergraduate options - reducing career options 3. Overwhelming majority of adults (teachers and parents) also suffer from math phobia - creating undue stress To top it all, 1. Math is the language of the fast emerging Artificially Intelligent world - drastically chopping off career options for the vast majority of young adults 2. Math is the language of science - it's being projected that by 2050s math will be to biology more than what it's to physics for a few centuries - poor math hurts sci-tech careers too 3. Math is the architectural blueprint of research - even a 'research mindset' requires logic/reasoning/problem solving approach; such a mindset is always highly valued The silver lining Just as Artificial Intelligence - modelled using math - is getting to touch ourselves in an ever widening and penetrating way, we have readied all that's needed to revolutionise math education! It's unnatural for a (human) child to be a 'struggler' in math There is more to it - it's impossible to create a 'tough exam paper' in math IF taught well! IF we really learn to read, think, write, see, act, and imagine in the language we call mathematics, EVERY one of us will excel in math! How do we learn? We still don't know a lot about how we learn, but we know - Learning ∝ Engagement; Engagement ∝ Relationship Indeed, relationship with math is important to excel in math! Grade X math exam Prep This is practically your last year of school education to close the foundational gaps in math - most important being 'building a relationship with math' - even if you pursue math in Grade XI. This year we have not published the books with theory for all the chapters. This is the exercise/workbook part of the X math book and is unique for the following 1. All the questions – past several year’s board exam questions, NCERT book and Exemplar questions are categorised in 84 concepts, not just 15 chapters 2.
