<p>I can't wait till I get out of school and don't take test over it anymore:) It's the only class I get stressed out before a test.</p>
<p>Math hates you. And I hope you don't plan on going to college, because you'll be seriously disappointed. Math is a core course and I'm guessing you won''t have any AP calc credits...</p>
<p>lol. you dont need to take calculus at all to get a bachlelors degree.</p>
<p>If it were up to me I would take math all day long..</p>
<p>I hate math too. And it doesn't help that every math teacher at my school makes me feel stupid for asking questions. I pretty much just try to figure it out myself...which is why I'm struggling so much with precalc. Only the ap calc teacher is a good teacher who doesn't make you feel like crap for not knowing everything</p>
<p>No, but im pretty sure you have to complete some math core requirement. I'm not saying for every single bachelors degree, but most at most decent universities. i could be wrong...but I'll just pretend like I know what the **** I'm talking about. haithman, I agree. math and physics.</p>
<p>if it was up to me i'd **** aishwarya rai all night long.</p>
<p>since that's unfeasible, math is the second best thing.</p>
<p>math is the future</p>
<p>everything else is useless (except science, of course)</p>
<p>yes mediocretes math + physics</p>
<p>There is a reason why the only teachers who are in short supply are math teachers.</p>
<p>*math is the future</p>
<p>everything else is useless (except science, of course)*</p>
<p>hahahahahaha thats hilarious - great joke!</p>
<p>shut up. the fact that you can be an ass across hundreds of miles to people you don't even know is testament to the greatness of mathematicians much better than you will ever be and probably much better than I will ever be. sour grapes, man.</p>
<p>I actually kind of like math, but the thing that bothers me about it is that you're penalized for making stupid mistakes. You can know the concepts through and through, but miss a negative sign and you've lost 10 points. Story of my life.</p>
<p>"you're penalized for making stupid errors."</p>
<p>I guess that's the risk with making errors.</p>
<p>I also am a math fan, but the exams will kick your ass I totally agree. I could probably figure out any math problem known to man, but when you have to memorize formulas and spit it out on a test it sucks. BTW, who was the genius who came up with story problems?</p>
<p>Yeah, sorry, it's late.</p>
<p>Yeah for math!! Big math guy right here. I am taking Calc III and Number Theory this year as a senior and I am loving both classes, although Number Theory is difficult.</p>
<p>shut up. the fact that you can be an ass across hundreds of miles to people you don't even know is testament to the greatness of mathematicians much better than you will ever be and probably much better than I will ever be. sour grapes, man.</p>
<p>whoa there - my post was not meant to be offensive (more pointing out an error in logic than anything, I guess - something math people should know about), and in any case, you grossly overreacted. So calm down.
And how is this a testament to mathematicians? lol you also need to learn something about non sequiturs. </p>
<p>My point still stands - you need to seriuosly reevaluate your thought process if you think that math and science are the only useful subjects to learn.</p>
<p>Well, there has to be a right answer and no matter how close, a wrong answer is still wrong and deserves less points. You can only hope to have a fair teacher who recognizes the significance of certain errors over that of others. I get my math and physics teachers all the time on little errors they make that greatly affect the final answer. in fact, i've gotten my math teacher on a fairly serious mistake that was beyond just a sign error and was a very serious one about how the chain rule works. everyone makes mistakes and if you know your $hit, your grade shouldn't be affected by those mistakes because they'd only be worth something like 1 point on a test.</p>
<p><3 math, the only pure science! I just got published in a Math magazine. I'd feel like such a nerd, but UPENN 2009 GO QUAKERS.</p>
