“What inspired me to stay involved in the program was the feeling of competition that it generated and the kind of challenges that I got to overcome,” explains Chaudhary. “I started with a game named Just The Facts which increased my points very fast. After I started to do the Decimals section, my calculation speed start increasing. When I saw all the benefits, I started to do it for many hours. Know & Show actually became the best module for me, because it was good and increased my thinking ability to solve a word problem.”
Chaudhary says that FIM will help him excel in mathematics. “I concentrated on this program and it really helped me improve my mathematical skills. Now I can do a difficult question very easily. It is an excellent way to increase a person’s logical and reasoning skills. I advised many students to try it who were having an account in First In Math and the students who did it were very thankful. When they told me about this, I was very happy, and I want First In Math to be held in our school once again.”
