It was a decent week for me on KA but could have gone better. (If I was to grade it, I’d probably give it a B–.) I made it through the Applications of Multivariable Derivatives unit test which I was happy about, but it wasn’t really that hard and afterwards I didn’t put enough effort in to… Read More Week 332 – One Unit Test Down, but a Tough New Challenge Begins
I’m happy to say that it was a fairly successful and productive start to 2026 for me on KA! 🥳 I made it through the first of the three unit tests in Multivariable Calculus that I need to get through, which was the second unit in the course, Derivatives of Multivariable Functions. I got through it on Wednesday… Read More Week 331 – Ending the Year with a Perfect Run of 21 Questions
I’m happy to say that I actually had a VERY good week on KA. I only made it through the Exploring Two Variable Quantitative Data unit test from College Statistics, but afterwards, I finally got back to Multivariable Calculus after all these months and began working on the Derivatives of Multivariable Functions (the second unit of the course)… Read More Week 330 – 37 Pages of Notes and a Multivariable Calculus Breakthrough
This was one of the best weeks I’ve had on KA in a long time. I made it through the Random Variables unit test (the ninth unit in Statistics and Probability) AND got through the last exercise I had left to do in ALL of the Math: High School and College section of KA. 🥳 Heading into this week,… Read More Week 329 – A Huge Week: One Test and One Final Exercise Down!
I’ve had worse weeks on KA, but this one certainly wasn’t my best. I was working on the Random Variables unit test but did pretty poorly on it. There are 21 questions on the test and the most questions I got through before getting one wrong was seven. That said, there were a number of questions… Read More Week 328 – Getting Rocked by Random Variables, but Still Fired Up to Finish
I’m happy to say that I finished the Parametric Equations, Polar Coordinates, and Vector-Valued Functions unit test this week AND made it through the sixth unit’s unit test in the Statistics and Probability course, Study Design! 🥳 After that, I got my butt kicked on the first few questions in the next unit test (the ninth unit in Statistics… Read More Week 327 – Two Unit Tests in One Week: Calculus BC Complete!
I unfortunately did not pass the Parametric Equations, Polar Coordinates, and Vector-Valued Functions unit test this week, but I was SO close and probably should have. The good news is that, although I don’t have a super strong grasp on the questions, I can generally think through and visualize what’s going on with the calculus and vector-valued… Read More Week 326 – So Close to Passing, but Still Feeling Short of My Potential
It was another one of those ‘could have been better, could have been worse’ type of weeks. 🤷🏻♂️ I didn’t make it through the Parametric Equations, Polar Coordinates, and Vector-Valued Functions unit test, but I did much better with it than I thought I would. I’m guessing I spent less than 5 hours working on it, so that was part… Read More Week 325 – A Tough Week on Khan Academy, but Big Progress with CodaKaizen
After five long weeks, I FINALLY got through the Integration and Accumulation of Change unit test. 😭 I ended up passing it on my first attempt this week — I was already 15 questions into the test when I started it — and felt quite confident answering all but the final question. It was a HUGE relief finally getting… Read More Week 324 – Five Weeks Later: Integration Complete and a New Challenge Begins
So, I didn’t pass the Integration and Accumulation of Change unit test. 😭 I spent a decent amount of time on KA trying to get through it though and by the end of the week, I finally feel confident that I’ll be able to get through it on my next attempt of two. I got a much stronger grasp… Read More Week 323 – Sigma Notation Clicks, but a Careless Mistake Keeps Me Waiting
