An Assessment of Level of Proficiency in General Mathematics Subject of Grade 11 ABM Students in Bestlink College of the Philippines School Year 2018-2019

Abstract

Measuring the Level of Proficiency of Grade 11 ABM Students in General Mathematics is very challenging. Other students find it hard analyzing and solving General Mathematics problems while others find it enjoyable and challenging. The purpose of this study is to assess the levelof proficiency of Grade 11 ABM students in General Mathematics Subjects, leading them to academic success. A qualitative research method was used in the study. Using the descriptive research design, it focused on the assessment of four variables to measure the level of proficiency of grade 11 ABM Students in General Mathematics such as Quizzes, Assignments, Recitations, and Quarterly Exams. The data were gathered by distributing questionnaires to the selected Grade 11 ABM students. The results of the study revealed that Grade 11 ABM Students are Proficient in General Mathematics in terms of the following: (1) Quizzes –Grade 11 students are proficient in their quizzes when they answer mathematical problems in a short time correctly, resulting to high scores in quizzes. (2) Assignment –Grade 11 students are proficient in doing their assignments when submitting a correct output, resulting in high scores in the mathematical problems assigned. (3) Recitations –Grade 11 students are proficient when they solve and answer math problems correctly during recitations in a short time. (4) Quarterly Exam –Grade 11 students are proficient in mathematics when they solve problems in the quarterly exam correctly, including the solutions and equations. The result of the study demonstrates that Grade 11 ABM Students are proficient in General Mathematics. Even though they are proficient, they still need training with the help of their teachers. School administrators should conduct advanced training and learning in General Mathematics subjects. Continuous advanced training and review in General Mathematics will help students excel and increase their level of proficiency in the subject.
