[QUOTE="Angcuru, post: 1872132, member: 10948"] I despise the study of mathematics. I appreciate what OTHER PEOPLE can do with it to help me, but once I am directly involved I feel like taking a sledge to . . . something mathematical. For me, the difficulty is in remembering all of those damnable FORMULAS. Throughout my academic career, Mathematical subjects are the only ones that I have not gotten consistent A/B scores in. Do a Psychological analysis of Joseph Stalin and Napoleon Bonaparte? Sure thing. Write a flawless twenty page essay on some obscure subject I've never heard about? No sweat. Argue other people into the ground over philosophical matters? Cake. Math with letters? Kill me now. There is no arguing or logic in math. It just is. There is only one answer, and if you are five billionths of a decimal off, you're still wrong. You still fail. And the professor looks at you like you're glowing hot pink in the middle of the sahara desert wearing a sailor suit and doing the electric slide. Bastards. [/QUOTE]
