Brendan Mak, a student from SM Stella Marris in Pudu, Kuala Lumpur, said this was a more effective way. The student, who had never scored an A in Mathematics, managed to get a distinction in the subject in the Pentaksiran Tingkatan Tiga (PT3), or Form Three Assess­ment, simply by watching YouTube tutorial videos before the exam. “The videos really helped me understand the formulae for maths equations,” said the 15-year-old, who scored 6As. The student from Catholic High School, Petaling Jaya, credited workbooks and past-year exam questions for familiarising her with the latest answering techniques. The other three components are school assessment; assessment of physical, sports and co-curricular activities; and psychometric assessment.
