I suggest getting one of the GRE study guides from Princeton Review, Kaplan, etc.  Those things give you strategies for working with the type of questions you will have on the GRE.  They stress how to score points on the exam, how it is structured, how to use the answer choices, etc.  It won't make you an better at math, but it can prepare you for the exam (which is presumably what you are after).  Give yourself enough time to read the texts and get practice and even time to ask someone for some help on some of the types of problems.

Be bold, be clear in your concepts,and plunge.My son was alsohaving similar fears.He is also a doctor like you.Hence shed your reluctance.Good luck.

first make sure you have the basic math skills down, then do problems...do problems and then do more problems...lots of practice can make anything easier...unfortunately there is no way to get around this...

Begin by teling yourself that there's nothing on this earth that can defeat you. Make a humble return to those things you know about math and begin to gradually work your way back up to the level where you first began having trouble. Believe in yourself, I know you can do it.

All inability stems from not understanding words, symbols etc (the misunderstood word or symbol). So in knowing that data, I presume that many people have a lot of words and symbols in the subject of maths that they do not fully understand.\n\nTo improve your maths skills, get some good dictionaries and look up EVERY word and symbol that you do not fully understand that you come across...you will be AMAZED at how much your ability will increase!

well definitely u should practice for it cuz practice makes a man perfect. Try to remeber all the important formulas and definitely try to understand the question and dont forget be calm when u r doing ur maths paper cuz if u r going to be tension u r definitely going to do some mistakes and try to concentrate on the questions and try to answer them. if u need extra help for maths u should talk to ur parents and teachers about it.

Read and understand the curriculum. Solve the problems, and then resolve them. There are a number of good authors for guides on  CBSE maths, and all subjects. Refer them through your institution's library, join a good coaching class.\n\nIn Bangalore, India there are a number of good coaching classes, I am sure that they must be there in your city too. st

By conquering your fear. Do one step at a time. \nFor Example:\n1. You are a shy person, you are afraid to make friends. What do you do? The next time you enter an elevator.. just say "Hi, how are you?" and when the person replied back, continue the conversation. If the person didn't answer, don't be despaired or embarrassed because chances are the person is as shy as you. Soon you realised.. you are not that shy anymore.\n\n2. You are not good with maths! Practice and the key is to understand the concept. Many refused to practice because they refused to learn the concept and without practice nothing helps. Once you get the first question right, you feel challenge and accomplished and soon you will be good with it.\n\n3. This is my own experience. I am so afraid to reformat my laptop because i never did it before and it was infected with spy ware. The advise I get from friends " Gees, very troublesome..can be complicated etc.etc. Why not ask the expert to do it?? it will cost you a couple of hundreds" Then i read the manual, it seems so easy and I think of the worst thing that can happen if i messed up. After evaluating the risk..I just took the step to do it and follow the instructions on the screen. It is as easy as ABC...nothing genius about it. It took only my time because I had to reinstall everything..my programs and the anti virus etc. All in all I spent a good 2hrs before my laptop run just like new.\n\nRemember, there is a saying... you built a house one stone at a time :)

i read the previous ans..\ni had a friend with the same problem, but he got rejected.\nhe was asked to clear the exam nd then join cos maths was mandatory from thir point of view..\nanyways u need to search , maybe u get some place which doesnt require maths pass.\nbut it is always better to clear this nd go further cos u may get fixed at some point of time due to this. just fulfiiling ur immediate aim wont result good later on in life . even u wont be clear now what all opportunities u would be getting in future..\nso better now ...

hi...\nlooks like your frantic to become an einstein...\nanyway i just want to share some tips with you...\n\n* get to know all the formulas in your  standard  syllabus and little higher too..because maths alwasy means "the more cunning and clever ..the better you tackle the subject from all angles" cunning i meant the questions.. since those questions will be to find out who thinks out of the box..\n\n* try to analyse the data with the question and find equations relate closer to the answer..\n\n*mostly look intoalgebraic and arithmetic problems, quadratic equations,trignometric ratios, polynomials geometrical figures and graphs /statistics. i know these willbe common topics to you..but questions will be of a higher level\n\n* try to refer the previous or if possible any question of maths olympiad held previously ,so that you can refresh yourself with the questions\n\n* questions are not going to be simple since it is going to be tough... so spend enought  time with each of your math topic and try to work even difficult and unusual problems too..i.e which you havent worked out ..\n\n* relax and study..pray to god..he can help you face this challenge... so get prepared for the war with numbers\n\nall the best and good luck to you

The only advice i have learnt about education is that unless you have a will power to do it, there is no way you will succeed.  You need to have the stimulation that this is the course you want to do and this is the career i want to be and no matter what happens I will pass the course.  You have a relatively good chance of passing in computer but mathematics alone cannot determine.

maybe you could try practising. For maths, the phrase practice makes perfect is very true. hmm...short cuts in multiplication and division...maybe you could try learning the abaccus (a mathematical instrument used by the chinese => functions like a calculator, but manually powered, no batteries)...I only know how to add and subtract using it...

If your are poor in maths, that is not the fault of maths: maybe your, your teacher, your school or some others fault.\n\nSTART from start. I mean start from BASICS. Take as much as time is possible and practise and try to learn the basics of maths. If the BASIC is strong then everything will be ok afterward. Take it as a challenge. Practise maths with those people who are good at maths. Revise previous maths you have solved. Try from easy maths, then go to hard and harder.\n\nDont go fast.\n\nGive time to improve.\n\nOne day you will realise, you are doing maths and its not that hard. Its only challenging and exciting to solve mathematical problems. And you will learn more and more and you will be stronger.\n\nNo one is good or bad at maths. Its just they dont know how to do it or they just dont practice and forgot the technics.\n\n\nGoodLuck. Take it easy. Start from the beginning. ok! i understand. START again then....

first in studying math you should interpret the rules/problem in terms in which you can understand. Most math problems are practical problems, never mind the formulas that you have to follow, don't be limited by that. As long as you understand it in your own way, you can solve it, & believe me, you can answer math problem even if you do not follow the formulas given by the book or d teacher. \n\nMany people find studying math very hard coz they are already terrified just hearing the word math.Simple rules in solving math problem or any problem-be calm, when u are calm u can think clearly; and think that it is only a problem, it  s called problem because it can be solve and ur going to find it, before u know it ur inner self is guiding u 2 d answer

First dont be panic its never too late. I m also an engineer therefore encountered same situations earlier. I feel that there are 5 or 6 subjects in every semester. So take those subjects first whom you havent touch earlier. Or if time is so less that u cant finish syllabus by time then at least prepare 4 units of each subject out of 5 so that u have enough matter to write in exam. And also concentrate on diagrams Coz diagrams can pictorially represent what u will write in whole page. For numericals u have to learn all the pertaining formulas and while solving numericals try to find out which formula(s) can be implemented. Also write all the  values given in the question on paper and then think about implementing formulas

Friend - Talk to your guidance counselor.  Colleges offer independent studies on basic math or tutors that can help you to understand math.  There is no reason to be embarrassed, many people have been passed over in the school system without learning the tools they need for life.  The blame is on them, not you.  But, if you let this continue, it will cripple your ability to function in the world...get to that counselors office.  Best of luck. GBU
