Focus and Grit by Isabel Renjith

Author: Isabel Renjith

OLSH, Class 7

 I wasn't practicing maths very regularly at all. To be very honest, I never used to pick up a textbook and do sums unless I was nearing the exam. Since I usually get quite good marks in my math exam, I didnt worry much.I ended up leaving most of my portion to study in the last 2-3 days. Of course, this didn't work very well as I tried to cover the entire portion in a very less time. As a result I got low marks in the exam.

 I decided not to let this happen again. I did a few sums almost every day and enrolled in a math tuition too. I definitely put in a lot more hardwork than before. Before the exams I made it a point to wake up at 5:30 and focus on maths along with other subjects and not leave it for the last minute. I scored much better this time and have learnt my lesson.
