Std 5 students expected to learn how to calculate car loan interest? An internet-famous teacher mocked the idea, suggesting that even individuals at the age of 50 might not excel at calculating this interest rate!
He posted a photo of a mathematical problem along with his post, requesting students to calculate the monthly installment amount under a 3% loan interest rate for purchasing a car priced at RM155,000 , with a repayment period of 5 years.
He pointed out the unreasonable aspects of the primary school curriculum, which has faced criticism for many years, and called on the Ministry of Education and the Teacher Training Group (BPG) to address the public's queries regarding this matter.
He highlighted that even the religious teacher Zaharuddin Hamid found it astonishing that a fifth-grade question would require students to calculate a car loan interest rate over a 5-year period. The curriculum's demands are truly excessive.
