<p>So I'm going to be majoring in English and I was wondering, what math do you need to take to suffice the math credit? I am awful at math and had to work really hard in high school to get a B- in it. Will Grad Schools care if you do poorly in math but very well in all of your major-related classeS?</p>
<p>usually just a basic math, such as college algebra, finite math, trig, or maybe statistics. depends greatly on what school you go to...</p>
<p>It depends on your school; I just need to take two math/science classes and one required and specific science class. The other two can be any type of math or science the school offers. It may be similar for your.</p>
<p>My school has "Math for the Liberal Arts" which is basically a history of math class that doesn't make you do any actual math. See if there's anything like that at your school.</p>

<p>That can be deceptive in some schools. For instance UVA offers History of Calculus and History of Math courses - both are 500 level courses and have significant mathematical rigor to them.</p>
