Ben you are so humble. Congratulations on your achievements. A great conversation this was, thank you for inviting Mdu. I have recently decided to rewrite my Matric and go back to school. I've always been smart and passed well but unfortunately I lost focus during a crucial time in my life. Time has gone by, I'm now 28 years old and I am tired of praying for luck and chance. I reflected, self-introspected and decided to do right by myself. I am a bit anxious, I'm scared but my will to succeed is even greater. I want to one day be inspiration to anyone who feels their life is over due to making bad decisions. I will definitely give back and inspire others to shake the dust off and rise from the ground. No one is coming to save you. No miracle will fall on your lap either.

Can you share the website for listing of entrepreneurs at Pick n Pay that Mr Banks spoke about. 2. Kindly share the link/website where one can also register their business for bikes/bicycles.

About the 5 minutes reading time, you're so right .Trying to solve the first question you see will make you panic and ruin everything. Thank you Dr. As your former student I've learnt a lot. Very much appreciated sir.

If one mark is one minute then where is the time for thinking and understanding the question cz we are not the AIs batho, cz we need to understand the question and formulate on our heads the way of putting the points together in a way that the lecture can understand how I responded to the question

Next time ask that sgudent why he's in class. "How does this apply to the real world" is a high school question. But, if you have the agency of an adult, why are you in this class if you don't believe that it has real world significance?

Good evening Dr. I am currently having my master's exam in applied mathematics. But I have been a passionate educator, I have been training to become a learning coach to improve the quality of education across Africa. You are really doing great work. I will someday love to connect with you. You are amazing. Love from Nigeria

DrB after my semester test 2, our prof was COOKING there by topology.. there was a closed set I have never seen... I had to think, instead of the traditional way of proving it's complement is open, I realized I had to use Sequential Characterisation of Closed Sets...did I not get chest pains on my way back to res🤣. Math is Challenging at varsity and knowing all the theorems and practicing all past past papers is not enough in some Challenging modules like Analysis, Topology, Algebra, etc. U may think u know but exam seters always have tricks up their sleeves .. My advice(to myself) is, even when u know every Definition, theorem(& their negations quite NB) and knowing how to place all the required quantifiers correctly as wanted by each question, expect a challenge and use all the tools learned in class to try prove/do questions u see for the first time(there was 4 new questions I have never seen their structure in my case, I was able to prove/do the other 2 but the other 1 and the one mentioned above chowed me). There is no one way of solving a problem, there's more than 1. As a student u need to know all of them. If it's a question u cannot do via the traditional way, just know something is beating the water. there is a trick there and U just have to have the ability to spot it so that u make reasonable changes to the given problem and make it look like the question u are used to or the examiner just wants u to use different tools( Like in the example I gave above) to solve the question. One way of passing is making sure u know how to do every technical question(from tut and class), know every definition and proving each theorem in ur module, Know all the ways of proving( ur direct, contrapositive, contradiction & etc..) then we can say u'll get a 55% to 60% in the test/exam. The other 40% to 45% will come with how well do u understand the course. This is according to my experience in the context of mathematics at varsity level. And my Last advice to my fellow mathematicians here at Dokotela Ben assuming we all doing undergrad math or have done it, ey guys know how to NEGATE. 😁😆 Thanks Dr Ben, I am learning a lot here, getting advices & get to reflect on how I think compared to other maths students. U always post a vid about what exactly is going through students at the current moment. I hope we get another one on more insides of how to really do well in our exams now that we're almost done attending classes, just b4 we begin with our June Exams. The Exam timetable is also quite stacked up, I find it hard to prepare for more than 2 modules at the same time and u find in some cases u writing 3 time in a space of 1 week. advices will be appreciated🙏🙏

Hi Bonginhlanhla, if you are doing a BSc in Mathematics and Chemistry, I take it that those are your majors. Then you can choose to do a postgraduate degree in mathematics or chemistry, depending on your final year results. If you choose the Mathematics route, an honours degree will be sufficient for you to get a corporate job in data science or quantitative analysis or any of the jobs requiring mathematics.
