Is Abacus / Mental Arithmetic good?
I teach abacus/mental arithmetic and I'm always asked, is it good?
Yes, I would answer "It is good because you'll learn to handle big problems fast with good guessess, within a certain percentage of error or so".
You'll learn to do arithmetic fast, in that way you can spend your time thinking about what the numbers mean. Use that rapid arithmetic skill in the examination battlefield and you know you have the right weapon.
