Review tiers 1–10
- Checklists are parent-judged.
- Written items: verify against practice set patterns.
- Standard text: Binary operations, equivalence relations, and modular arithmetic Groups: definitions, examples (Z, Z_n, dihedral, symmetric groups) Subgroups and cyclic groups; generators and order Cosets, Lagrange's theorem, and index Normal subgroups and quotient groups Group homomorphisms and the first isomorphism theorem Direct products and simple groups (introduction)
Practice test scoring
| Tier | Pass guidance | | --- | --- | | 1–3 | Most oral tasks smooth; majority of written correct | | 4–6 | 7/10+ total with clear understanding | | 7–8 | 9/12+ with explanations | | 9–10 | Near-perfect; ready to move on |
