Want is Algebra for? I did chemistry and physics and math through Calculus, and never used Algebra - in my life! It is the number one reason for kids failing to graduate high school. It needs to stop.
I’m in Algebra 2 and it seriously isn’t that hard.
I made a 32 on my last test, but even I know that all I needed to do was study and I would’ve gotten a better grade.
I’m 41 and the only math I’ve ever had to use since high school is basic math. It’s one of the dumbest things taught in school. After 4th or 5th grade math should be an optional class. Plus every single math teacher on the face of the planet is a massive ass hole.
I didnt mind math in high school, had no issue with algebra quadratics logarithms etcetera and always breezed through math, hit a wall with calculus and went straight into social sciences in college
Person: how do you struggle in geometry?! I got an A in that class!
Also that person: *has a C in all their other standard classes.*
[spoiler]I’m sorry I’m just super bitter about geometry.[/spoiler]
I hated algebra, failed it miserably, they really lost me at imaginary numbers = negative 1. I mean then it can't be imaginary now, can it?
30 years later, and I actually use algebra at work.
Oh the humanity.
