because calculus lets you calculate crazy volumes without a measuring cup, determine how fast you're moving at this exact instant, and what your magnetic field strength is.

Next thing you'll be saying we can use it to calculate our power level without scoutersOriginally Posted by rubah
Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
The thing in trig where you get things like
2sin + cos = cot
tan ............sin
and have to simplify them. I always forget what it's called.
Circle Theorems always got me, it's not that they're hard - it's just a matter of remembering the rules and applying it to the question, which is alot harder than it sounds
I never got all the angles crap, with the tangent and such, went straighttt over my head. Oh man and Surds too, I hated them soo much xD
I hated Maths, and as I've not applied for it at college, I never have to do it again!
Everything.
Signature by rubah. I think.
Seriously, so I took a CLEP test today to see if I could get out of taking a college math class. It was standard level Algebra and I failed the hell out of it. The f(x) nonsense and some other bull crap destroyed me.
I hate graphs. I hate everything about them. I hate graphing ANYTHING in math. Give me equations and shizz. I can't stand drawing dots on a grid and connecting them; I find it useless and much prefer the bar graph, but I don't think there's enough room in mathematics for that
Also, another thing that I'm totally bad at is basic stuff that you learn in grade school. I never paid attention so when I got to 10th grade I was in Algebra 2 and had to multiply fractions. I mean, what the smurf, I can do everything but basic math. Don't even get me started on long division, but I'm getting better. I just hate the remainders. The thing is, I used to remember doing this stuff and it comes back to me but I hate how I forgot it. I guess that applies to grammar as well. I used to read books under my desk while the teacher was teaching and still got Straight A's. The only bad thing about this was that I forgot everything almost immediately.
This one I have no clue about: Permutations and Combinations. I have NO IDEA how that <img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /><img src="http://forums.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/rpg_009.gif" alt="skull" /> works at all. It's all like 3! and stuff. ;_; There was some method of doing it but I was absent so I tried to learn on my own and I failed.
Proofs. No one ever smurfing teaches me how to proove anything.
Oh, and I also hate that crap to do with Variance, standard deviation, root mean squared deviation etc. I dont think its hard - I just fall asleep.
"They said this day would never come. They said our sights were set too high. They said this country was too divided, too disillusioned to ever come around a common purpose. But on this January night, at this defining moment in history, you have done what the cynics said we couldn't do." - Barack Obama.

I haven't even started Algebra 1 yet, but I always find myself getting many problems wrong because I'm so careless, I always forget simple steps in math.
This might be a bit off-topic, but I wonder how much mathematical teaching differs from country to country.
I don't actually remember having many issues with maths. One of my majors is Economics, and the other is Finance, so there is a lot of mathematics involved. I dislike having to do Maths where there are more constants represented by letters than numbers!
