Practise by topic
Exam-style questions, multiple choice and structured, for each CSEC Maths syllabus objective, from easy to hard.
How it works
Try it first, learn it the way that clicks, then practise
RickXam works like a patient tutor with an examiner's mark scheme. It teaches each topic more than one way, you do the maths, and it checks every step.
Learn it the way that clicks
Every topic has more than one way in
You start with a question. If you slip, you pick how to learn it, and you can switch any time. Doing beats watching, so most of them have you doing the maths yourself.
Try it first
Have a go before any teaching. A wrong answer brings up the common mistake behind it, and how to fix it.
See it and move it
Solve a question by dragging the graph, shape or Venn diagram yourself, then see why your answer works. At launch: graphs, transformations and sets.
Real-life problem
Problems set in Jamaica, in JMD. Hire purchase or cash for a fridge? The GCT on a phone bill?
Step by step
Go through a worked example one line at a time, and predict each next line before you reveal it.
Spot the mistake
Find and fix the wrong line in a worked solution. It trains exactly what examiners give method marks for.
Quick-fire challengeAfter the pilot
Short timed rounds with streaks, for mental arithmetic and number facts.
More than one method, too
Where the maths can be done more than one way, you see each method and use the one you like. Marking gives full marks for any correct method, like the exam.
15% of $96,000
- As a decimal: 0.15 × 96,000
- 10% + 5%: 9,600 + 4,800
Simultaneous equations
- Elimination: add the equations
- Substitution: y = 11 − 2x
We don't label anyone a “visual learner”. Research doesn't back teaching to one fixed learning style, but mixing different ways in, and actually doing the maths, helps everyone. So you choose, and over time RickXam suggests the ways that have worked for you.
Step marking
Marked like the exam: method marks and accuracy marks
CSEC structured questions give a method mark (M1) for the right approach and an accuracy mark (A1) for the right answer. RickXam marks your working the same way. A slip in your arithmetic loses the accuracy mark, not the whole question, and later steps that use your answer correctly keep their marks.
Solve 2x + y = 11 and x − y = 1
- 13x = 12✓ M1
- 2x = 4✓ A1
- 32(4) + y = 11✓ M1
- 4y = 19✗ A0
You lost 1 mark at step 4. You added 8 instead of taking it away.
What you get
Everything you need to practise on your own
- 1Nudge
- 2Hint
- 3One step
- 4Solution
Get unstuck, without being handed the answer
First a nudge, then a hint, then one worked step, then the full solution. You take only as much help as you need.
✓M1 ✓A1 ✓M1 ✗A0
Step 4: you added instead of subtracting.
See where you lost marks
Structured questions are split into steps. Each step is checked and given method and accuracy marks, so the one that went wrong stands out.
