How many of y'all suck at math?

Guys, guys, guys, this thread is about sucking at maths, not getting 90-95% and saying that you suck ;)

I sucked pretty badly at maths, considering naturally I was very good at it. Obviously when you don't do something like maths (I only turned up to like 2/3rds of gcse maths lessons) much you get rubbish at it. Its only now that I'm actually really interested in it, when my friends are getting into cambridge and warwick to do maths degrees :rolleyes:

EDIT:
byu, you really shouldn't be posting in here :P

I started taking Advanced Pre-Algebra in Elementary school, my parents had to drive me to the nearby middle school for an hour each day. When I was 11, I started taking Adv. Algebra 1. I have a 96 in Adv. Algebra 1.

I've also gotten many awards for Math Olympiad (moems.com or moems.org, don't remember)
 
hmmm. math: im a C student but am at a real hard school. At my old school i (6th) i had A's but that was easy i guess? It's not so much math but cubers talk about science and im like ughhhhhhhhh. I get D's in Science so not so much math but my teacher always says "i see you do that rubiks cube? why cant you (insert math thing here)

Darn you, you little overachiever. I'm in the same class as you and I'm in 7th. :(
 
I'm 15 and have an understanding of concepts up through the college level, but I suck at solving problems and can't even do basic proofs and such without totally messing up. I think it's because I was not naturally good at math but tried to force myself to be very good at it too fast...
 
Practise, practise, practise.
your spelling

America:
Noun: Practice
Verb: Practice

Most of the rest of the world that has a relatively large amount of english:
Noun: Practice
Verb: Practise

I know, confusing. when I moved from China (my dad's work moved us a lot but now they've allowed us to stay here), my teacher kept on trying to correct my "spelling mistakes"

But on the subject of math, not language, math is my best, though not my favorite on most cases. I get straight a's but math is my strong point, though I like science (for the most part) a crap load better.

Yea this is what I was thinking. Everyone has used it as an excuse to come in here and show off about their worthless math accomplishments.

*wags finger* and don't you dare forget about my worthless accomplishments ;)
like when i spent long hard minutes during valuable class time learning how to sonic and thumb around for pen spinning :rolleyes:

basically the same with me, but I fail at geometry instead (as demoed by my answer to the math problem)
 
So far I am ok at math, i got an A in AP calc, but that is just because i can understand concepts, then intuitively forge my way through the rest. I think college math will be fairly easy cause my bro took the same courses i need to (he went into civil engineering and im shooting for mechanical) and he said most of his classes were just learning the concepts then applying them. But i can't multiply for crap, and circles or anything without variables and i fail miserably at it
