Ive taken algebra 1 (in high school wit the other scrubs) got a 80 somethin, algebra 2 (80 sumthin), Geometry (easier than the others, got a 90), precalculus TWICE (in it a second time now an im stugglin, in college). Ive always been a smart kid, grades in other classes were very good, history an science are second nature. Now math, ive spend hours on the same problems, studied with the teacher, gone to review things, for EACH of those courses. And i am just as bad right now as i was 4 years ago. shyt is pathetic, makes me feel like shyt because i really am horrible at math. And foreign language, the two are very closely connected, i cant remember shyt about grammar, or math grammar, the forumlas, terms, nothin. I can tell you the entire cellular respiration process, but i cant do long division :to:

I had to get this off my chest fam, got a 70 on a easy precal test, second time in the class. Same with foreign language, took spanish 1 twice (failed first time, shoulda failed second time but my teacher gave everyone A's for everything), spanish 2 (got the same teacher again lol, woulda failed if i didnt) once, now im in it again in college cus i couldnt get over 30% on the placement test. My brother taught himself spanish, he tried to help me but it jus goes through one ear an out the other.

Is there anyone else who is entirely hopeless in math/foreign language? I always forget everything i learned in a single week, i literally dont know how to do the shyt we took a test on last week, for both classes:sadbron:

EDIT:failed spanish twice btw, and took algebra 1 twice got 80's both times after lots of time spend studying. Dead ass almost went suicidal cus of precal, i legit just quit an told the teacher to jus fukk off basically

Math is easy...:upsetfavre:
i honestly dont know how to explain it but i just cant process it, like it makes absolutely no sense. I guess its cus i can only understand things if they make sense logically,math has its own language that doesnt have the same logic in the practical sense. I cant understand or remember things if i dont know the foundation its built upon, math is usually just use this extremely complicated formula to find x, fukk x what is x anyway its so random, then they start flippin shyt upside down an dividing fractions an shyt thats when im done

Math is used as a filter to separate people who are built for certain fields from those who aren't. It's basically a torture test of your critical thinking skills and logical reasoning. Some people who aren't good at it can become good with enough practice and hard work, but some people just ain't built like that.

First day of calc class nikkas is :gladbron:

A month later :sadbron:

math IS logic.

Its not going to come to you by bytching about it and trying to rush through it.

The stuff you're describing is basic shyt that you didn't grasp when you should have...so now you're working from behind.

Time to catch up. Its not going to wait for you.

You're in college and theres tons of help.

Its not meant to be easy. Its meant to be math.

if you really want to master it, you will.

You are your own obstacle.

Just remember that if you see it through, your life can change career wise.

don't be like these other people without tangible skills.

You're pathetic and an embarrassment.

I'm glad you're failing.

Hopefully you can find something else you can quit at. :pacspit:
