I do now. I did 6 hours of Calculus II homework last night. UGH is all I can say. I got most of it, and only a few puzzled me for a bit. Integrals are a bitch. Derivatives are a bitch.

This is the bitchiest->> Integral of sin^2(x)cos^2(x)dx

For whatever reason that little f***er took me an hour to figure out.

NOTICE: If you're going to be a Mechanical Engineering major, get ready to practically minor in mathematics!

I dunno if this qualifies as a rant or not; either way --> </rant>

 

The only feeling i get after doing math is frustration.
Im doing Algebra 2 right now and it puzzles me everytime i approach it. Ill undertand a new method on Monday, go to class Tuesday and be like WTF?! Its horrible..

Ughh, I hate math. Seriously, if someone were to put a math problem in front of me Id just stare at it with a blank face. Unless it was easy. Hahah!
I cant remember half of the math I did in High School.

I do remember one of my math teachers would teach 3-4 different lessons a day. We would jam pack them all in for weekly tests. He wondered why more than half the class failed each test.

 

Weekly tests?! That's insane! So far this semester I've had only two tests and we'll be lucky (for my math grade's sake) to fit in two more! I'm just glad college is relaxed, otherwise I'd be stressing about all my grades.

I nearly failed Algebra II. I blame the teacher, as I did fine in Alg I and in Geometry. It wasn't my fault he talked to himself more than he talked/teached to the class.

 

I had to take math 70 at the U of Oregon in 2002 at the age of 45 to get an electrical license. I had sucked so bad in the 9th grade (4 D's) that I had to do it over. Took me a good 3 hours of studying a night for the entire term and I still missed an A by one lousy point. It was utter hell...I feel your pain!

 

Dood, that is nothing! (I'm in 4th year mechanical engineering haha) Just wait till you have to do triple integrals in three dimensions as well as implicit differentiations to determine the stress, strain and torque on an object

 

Jeez i am glad I am not a Mech. Engineer, I am a Bio Science major, though i don't have to worry about math, Chem. gets you sometimes taking Ca(OH)2..(aq)+HNO3--> having to figure out the yield, spec. ions, molecular equation, net ionic equation, and such, they aren't really hard but time consuming
Oh cojaro where are you going to school if you don't mind me asking?

 

We had to do Chem as well...including organic Mechanical Engineering FTW!!!

 

I liked it so much I had to get my B.A. in mathematics.

 

haha yea i have to take organic as well

 

My job requires a basic understanding of addition, subtraction, division and multiplication, but if you want to do the job well, algebra and others really help walk circles around the co-workers at getting shit done>

 

Christian Brothers University. They're known for being a good ngineering school

Oh boy! I just can't wait! can't you just feel my enthusiasm? </sarcasm>

I got a whole list of math to do, but thankfully I won't have any math courses in my senior year. Booya!

( fall semester;spring semester)
freshman: precal/calc;calc II
sophomore: differential equations; calc III
junior: numerical analysis; math elective
senior: NONE YAY

 

im a math geek. i love math, especially algebra.

accounting majors ftw.

 

Want to do my alg homework for me, ill fax it LOL!

Tyler

 

that's is cool that is where my mom's cousin graduated from.

 

organic chemi...i hated that class and my major is environmental engineering...plus it the engineering that lease require math.....

 

math makes my head hurt.

part of the reason i got my accountant uncle to do my taxes for me
