My experience on sparx maths

I was feeling generous today so i decided 2 stars but sparx just know you created 3 mental breakdowns and 10 notebooks filled with wrong answers just because of the value of x .... and please sparx make the video match the question instead of having two different topics on each i cant take this no more

if i could give it a zero i would.

it is very tedious and many people have told me that they have been given over 20 questions in one part.

this is a terrible excuse for a learning regime and has made me entirely stop enjoying maths

I hate sparx maths with a passion

I hate sparx maths with a passion. Whoever made this website hates children and loves to see them stressed over maths questions with more words than an english essay. No one cares about how many apples Jack has and how that applies to the distance between Earth and the sun. Bookwork checks are absolutely rage-inducing and do absolutely nothing to benefit my education. I promise you, no sane child is going to go through all the effort to work out however many questions in a notebook and pass with 100% accuracy. Fix this awful website immediately, thank you.

this is the worst website my school uses.
the so-called personalised homework is just the simplest version of chatgpt spitting out questions that are easy for me until the bot decides that a short question should last up to 20 MINUTES.
do not use this website.

Find it mini game is dumb

The find it mini game is so rage inducing. I'm trying to find the seagulls as fast as I can as if being cursed with the urge to speedrun wasn't bad enough. The gimmick of the game is to find stuff around by scrolling around the map. I'm into the bonus round about to beat the level and the game thinks it's funny to register my scroll to the right as going back to the previous tab. My brain does a backflip into the void. All progress lost.

Sparx maths is AI slop

Sparx maths is AI slop. Has SO many problems:
They just expect you to know the answer with barely any help.
THE BOOKWORK (I don't do it)
Different pages for questions and answers.(Very distracting)
Not even personalised
Friends take HOURS on questions.
GSCE level questions for KS3 students
Why can't you get the question wrong?
Half the time the questions are explained badly.
Just use AI
I'd rather do written homework and get the odd detention for leaving it at home.
