What kind of Math was it on?
When I get one of those Double-Fourier transform homeworks or integration that deals with some crazy shit and takes 3 pages to solve

Ah, I wish my stuff I have to work on has only 3 pages

So much of this  |
Add me to the list
The hilarious thing is, my cousin wanted some help a couple of weeks ago with some relatively easy stuff, I saw it and was like ..realizing that I can't remember absolutely anything about that.
It's like my brain auto-deleted every single trace of maths-related material, like some kind of self defence mechanism. xD
(could be that I'm getting old, too :3 )

What kind of math is it? You can always post here, and ppl will help
I for one love math over the physics (eeek! xD), because I find it fun to calculate stuff
When I solve some thing and see that the solution kinda makes sense, it's really a cool feeling
Which I cannot say for the seminar I have And it's due in a month, month and a half :\

But i guess that also says a bit about how practical the course is, does it not?  |
Yeah . Maths is useful, but some branches are definitely too abstract to be interesting (and useful for your hypothetical job). There are countless of theorems that don't have any concrete purpose but you're supposed to learn them.."because you have to, don't ask why".

And it's not like you do not use AutoCAD or MathCAD or Matlab to solve them and have to solve all by hand

Haha it can be confusing at first, but once you get used to them and memorize the few formulae that you need it's a walk in the park (as long as the exercises aren't too abstruse of course ). You should consider yourself lucky that you're not in the dark side of maths yet xD
