Year 8 student Adeel worked through trigonometry concepts, including angles of elevation and depression, solving worded problems by drawing diagrams and applying trig ratios.

Year 10 student Laaibah focused on networks, learning about paths, trails, circuits, and shortest path questions while building familiarity with key network definitions.

For Year 12, Riley revised past HSC exam questions in financial mathematics—calculating tax payable and annuities—and practised finding the least squares regression line from data.

In Year 8 mathematics, one student's solutions to linear equations often lacked clear formatting; as noted, "he should aim to keep it line by line, which makes it easier to check for errors." This made revisiting work and spotting mistakes harder, especially with real-world problems.

A Year 12 student tackling advanced finance questions showed a tendency to only attempt extra revision on familiar styles, avoiding harder HSC-level problems—leaving gaps in exam readiness.

In another case, a Year 11 student working through trigonometry avoided writing down steps and relied on memorising formulas instead of understanding their origins, which limited progress when facing unfamiliar angles.

During a Bamarang tutoring session, Andrea, a Year 12 student, recognised her own errors in a recent exam and explained why an alternative approach would have been more effective—something she previously struggled to do.

In Year 11, Laaibah has started showing her working in ratio problems instead of skipping steps when unsure, helping her catch calculation mistakes independently for the first time.

Meanwhile, a younger student demonstrated new initiative by reading house plans and accurately using scale without waiting for prompts; last term, he hesitated to try these questions on his own.
