The app aims to help students prepare for their Secondary or Middle schools' Mathematics examinations. Most of the revision kits only provide working steps in the solution but not the skill to understand, analyse and solve the problem. We resolve this issue by adding a unique feature, 'Thinking Process', in our app. Each topic in the app comes with 3 features: (1) Revision Notes (2) Questions with Guided Solutions, including thinking process and working steps (3) Practice Questions, including answer key, thinking process and working steps
