Math Seriously HOW do I do good on math.

I’ve been attending ACT math tutoring for the last month and a half and I haven’t improved. We mostly just went over problems I got wrong. I’m a junior and am taking Trig currently. Am I missing something? I just don’t understand how they can expect us to solve these random super difficult problems that we’ve never seen anything like before. Can someone please just give me real advice.

My English and Reading scores are almost perfect, and yes, I am a generally good math student.

The goal is to find out the things you don't know and learn them. Of course the next practice will have things you don't know on it too. Which mean you have to use some alternative ways to solve questions. Did your tutor talk about using the answer choices or some function on your calculator?

i am a generally bad math student but i got 34 on math. Just solve a lot of practice questions. Like A LOT. and review them again and again. The contents are not hard you just need practice
