I don't think you need an entire undergraduate degree equivalent to start doing proofs though.
Also timelines seem off. 1 to 2 years for gcse maths? Children do that while studying 9 subjects at the same time. An adult could go through that in months with a good book.
- cosmodisk 5y agoYou are right, he doesn't need that much. As for timelines, I think with enough motivation an entire GCSE can be devoured in a few months but the author is being realistic about the time: as an adult autodidact, you'd probably be doing it in addition to work/family/all the rest, so it can take longer.
- UK-Al05 5y agoYour also forgetting since children study many subjects, they probably only study fewer than 6 hours of maths a week. And half of that is probably low quality study.
