| The official thread for hating math Does anyone hate math like I do? Like, even when you understand it and you can do it easily you still hate it? That's how I am, even with simple addition. Something about crunching numbers just makes me ill, I mean I just finished math homework and I have a sore throat for some reason. It just sucks the life out of me, the joy, it makes me feel like I just completely wasted my time.
Boo math. |

| Haha I'm really good at math and I hate it. When I graduate, I'll have 7 math credits (hs..) I took algebra I in 7th, geomery in 8th, algebra 2 in 9th, precalc in 10th, then a two year IB math course called "math studies in 11th and 12th, and I'm going to take ap calc ab from somewhere before I graduate. The math class that I'm in this year (11th) is worlds easier than precalc was. I had the choice between going on to Math higher level, which is the hardest math class in the country (for HS.. you skip calc AB and go straight to BC, then move on to multi-var and other fun stuff), and what I'm taking now. Needless to say, I took the easy way out  . |

| Heya,
I'm bad at math, and I hate it. If I was good at it I think I'd still hate it.

| Math is beautiful, you guys suck.
Ct=t / ½pv(Ùr²)A
If you know what that is, you will have my eternal love, and five bucks in your pocket. |

| I love math because it stretches my mind in stinking awesome ways. I hated Math in elementary school but when I took Alg 1, I LOVED it! I couldn't get enough of it, as silly as that may sound. But now I'm in Pre-Cal and it's not so appealing as it once was. |

| I find math fulfilling. I have a very analytical mind, and it's like I get a feeling of accomplishment when I solve a problem. I also like math because it's deterministic, which I think gives me a sense of security about learning it.

| I can never seem to decide whether I really love it or hate it. My grades agree. Between Cal I and Cal II I dropped 30%.  So far my Probability & Statistics course is interesting enough. |

| Well I am of mixed emotions here.
1st - I hate the word math. It is to short and gets stuck on the tongue. When you say it i tmakes your mouth feel really dry. THe correct word is Maths, much nicer to say.
2nd - I actually quite like doing maths. It was one of my better subjects. |

I hate math. I despise math. I detest math. I loathe math.
I any-other-word-that-could-possibly-express-how-I-feel math.
It's not so bad this year, cause I understand it now, and everything, but I still hate it. |

I'm horrible at it, because I don't get it. |
