GBDon't get Afficient This sucks. My percentage goes down by like 30% each time I get an answer wrong while only giving me like 5% when I get a question right. Also, a lot of the instructions are really weird and don't make sense. It's also a pretty expensive program.

GBA sickeningly punitive course that turns kids against math This is a terrible software for kids. Whatever the reason that made it as such, it turns my son from "I love math" to "I hate math". So for any of you who are looking for recommendations, stay away The software is PUNITIVE in its heart. It is probably written by some sick math teacher from China who is willing to starve their children for every mistake they made in repetitive math exercises. Because that is the reaction I see in my son. He's a normal, average kid. Doing well enough in class that his teachers praise him in front of the class. As a result, he always tells adults he likes math. Until he gets on to this piece of software.

GBbuilding collapesd! My son started in 4th Grade. He reached 6th grade by now, and his teacher said that he was "accused of skipping questions leading to "learning loss"." He was kicked back to 4th grade, and has to start over. "It's like building a 100 floor building, and I'm building the 51st floor, then teacher finds out and teacher becomes an earthquake and shakes so hard that the building collapses back down to the 1st floor and he has a pile of rubble, and start over." my son said.

GBAfficent Math is horrible Honestly, as a student, this program is utterly sh1tttt. The computer system in it sucks, it can't detect anything and tends to just give random questions from 4 grade even though I am a high schooler. Furthermore, the demos are extremely confusing often with 3+ paragraphs explaining a simple x+1=3 question. Then when you actually start doing the problem it's 11(5x+7/2)+67-5(2-5y)=1. This is extremely frustrating as you just spent 10-20 minutes reading the demo to find out that the actual problem is much more complex. Moreover, the system is extremely expoiltable as each exercise only has around 10 problems and students (like me) can just screenshot the problem and then just look back to it for the answers. Overall, afficent math is not recommended to your child unless you want them to kill themselves. You will have your child better off using a math program such as Khan Acedemy.

GBWorth to Try My son started using Afficienta math at the beginning of COVID pandemic. We are very pleased with this program! It fits perfectly for a flexible, in home study plan. He has completed 5.5 grade levels math in the past 2.5 years and is well advanced in math at school. More importantly, he has learned how to learn something new without formal teaching environment, what is discipline and best time management. All of these further boosted his confidence in math and other areas.
