TMUA Proofs

TMUA does not expect students to prove anything in the usual sense of 'proofs' - however it often presents an 'attempt' at a proof and asks in which line (if any) appears the first error. It also occasionally presents a proof with the correct steps but in the wrong order, or proofs which actually prove the converse of what is attempted to be proved.

For those so interested, we offer both one to one TMUA coaching on proofs, as well as online group coaching via Zoom - 'TMUA Proofs' is Session #17 of 20. Check our TMUA Group Coaching Schedule page for dates when these sessions are available - details of what we cover in each group session can be found on our TMUA Coaching Sessions Overview page. For more general information on our online sessions check out our  'Online Coaching FAQ'.

Feel free to contact us if you require more information regarding any of the above.

Free Revision Resources

The below list of questions links to short videos (teasers) on our YouTube channel which directly or indirectly test elements of what is required to succeed in answering TMUA questions on proofs - they also provide a detailed solution to the question posed, together with tips and tricks and are arranged roughly in increasing order of difficulty. All the videos are taken from the Gresty Academy YouTube podcast 'A Crash Course in TMUA Must Know Maths' which contains hundreds of TMUA style questions and is great for revision.
