What math are you in?

Yeah I agree with you, I can do algebra just fine and I can do geometry just fine. I struggled in Algebra 2 and when we got to Trig I was like...nope can't do this.
What math are you in?
I'm having a difficult time figuring out if they mean Maths as "Mathematics" or "Maths Nightmare"...
I was going to wait for clarification before chipping in on the topic.

Oh, well I see some people say Mathematics as "maths" so I figured they were in the same boat as me. For the record both of them are hard for me xD.

Math isn't even hard until you get to calculus. ):

We call it "Math" here (Canada), so i guess it's not just the US.I think maths as in mathematics? I know in a lot of european countries, that's what they go by. Actually, I'm pretty sure that's what they call it pretty much everywhere except North America (...US specifically?)

And yeah, I agree, Math doesn't get difficult until calculus (or complex variable analysis).

I thought you loved math?
And. Math is just an abbreviation.

. We can solve the questions given using any knowledge of math that we have.
Any math that I remember, this has applied.
And I found math easy. I had to take Calc 1 and 2, and they were only slightly more difficult. The main thing with even calc is just not making stupid mistakes (once you know how to do the "steps" that is.) Most Frustrating part is if your off by a single digit somewhere in a problem taking up two pages of work, your answer can be very far off, and you'll usually not find where you made the mistake.

Matrices, Calculus and Spacial Geometry are a piece of cake for me ^^

Calc isn't hard tho, you just not studying/ being lazy! That's how it goes xD
Well.. it can be pretty challenging like the related rates and optimization but the rest is just tediously annoying computation that makes you want to shoot yourself c:
Ive had a hard time with calc too but only because I never studied everrrr! :l
Studying is borinng and yes... calc requires boring study u__u; lamesauce~

Yes, I like Math. I would have to if I had any hope in enjoying my future career. What is the issue here?I thought you loved math?
And. Math is just an abbreviation.
... and very good! It is an abbreviation.

But yea, for the most part calculus is easy.

I'd say after that to be honest. The only difficulty I ever had with math (and by difficult I mean I didn't understand it after a day of reading the concept) was probably in Differential Equations with transformations. Laplace Transform can blow me.It gets challenging if you do extension two maths
But yea, for the most part calculus is easy.
