Week 12: End-Term Mock and Final Review
Course: Jan 2026 - Mathematics I Focus: Using the mock as a final scan for weak spots across the whole track.
1. Core idea
Week 12 is less about a new topic and more about pressure testing the full course.
What to remember
- Reuse the same logic patterns from Weeks 9 to 11.
- Move quickly from interpretation to calculation.
- Do not get trapped in long algebra when a structure argument is enough.
2. Common traps
- Wasting time on a mock by trying to derive everything from scratch.
- Forgetting to classify the question before computing.
- Missing simpler invariants like degree sum or sign.
3. Speedrun pattern
When you see a mock question, ask:
- Which week does this resemble?
- What is the fastest legal route?
- What is the one trap the paper is likely testing?
