Fear of math stopping me from enrolling for LSS GB certification. Honest advice needed.

Featured Replies

I consider my self to be a good and quick learner when it comes to theoretical part. However, every time I see numbers, I start to stumble. I was/still am interested in getting my GB certification done (from hyderabad, want to enrol in the May-31 to June 3 certification class)  but I'm afraid that I wont be able to clear the exam as the test would also contain a lot of statistical and mathematical questions.

 

So, does one really need to be good or at least avg at maths/statistics to take up the course and be able to clear the test and get certified?

 

I'm really good at grasping  the methodologies and the theory part, it's the calculations side that's stopping me from enrolling for the upcoming certification.

 

I'm looking for an honest advice from any of the experienced members or the faculties/trainers to help me decide if spending the amount and making an attempt worthy enough considering my fear for numbers and calculations?

 

Or should I just drop the idea of ever being a GB certified individual?

@Vishwadeep Khatri any suggestions that you might have for me? How do I overcome this hurdle? 

Hi Pankaj,

 

We start from very basics in Green Belt. There will be several people like you in the batch. 

 

Most calculations are done through rough templates and statistical tools that you will get during training. If you are committed, I believe you can overcome this hurdle with the Trainer’s support

 

We also ensure that you do not lose touch with monthly webinars after training.

 

Hope this helps.

Thank you for the response, Vishwadeep. I'm committed to learning but just afraid that it'd be too much for me to learn the calculations part within the 4 days and then clear the test. 

 

Although, your reply does put some confidence in me. Also, will the team help me with some pre course study material so that I can prepare well in advance?

 

I'll sign-up for the upcoming course, but want to prepare well around the stats/math part before the course begins. Any advice where I should start from. Or do you/anyone offer any pre course basics class that I can look into.
