Precalculus Makes Me Cry

[GroovYChickeN 2.o]

Sorry had to let it out somehow.

I wish I could learn something useful. I'm in "applied geo-stats" which means they put me in the retard class just cause I have ADD or something.

just wait till ya get to calc 2 and beyond:P

Yeah, precalc kinda sucks, calc kinda sucks, at least the boring basic stuff, although thats where you learn how it works. But the second half of calc1, and calc2 and on, are pretty interesting, because you learn to do some really interesting things with it.

Precalc is childs play.

Learning, i've found, is one of the most underrated tasks out there. It's not so hard to apply the things you already know again and again, possibly in new ways, or use your inginuity (sp?) to accomplish something. It takes a lot more work to add something to your list of learned skills than most people think about, remember, or give credit for. Sure, plenty of people have learned precalc, calc, stats, various applied sciences, etc. before you have, but that doesn't mean things aren't hard here and now. Everyone looks back and thinks the things they did before were so easy, but they weren't when they were there themselves.

Don't let it get you down. High School kinda sucks as far as time management goes, but you'll get past it. Stick it out and you'll be fine.

Precalc sucks and is pointless. I took it twice between high school an college.
and now I'm in Calculus which has NOTHING to do with Precal.

Just pass the class, most of it is BS.

...yet.

[MoeMag]

I feel ya... like 4 years ago.

Learn algebra like a mad man.
learn trig till ya can think in secant lines

Precalc is a B.
calc is nasty.
calc 2 gets better.
calc 3... ya just deal with it.
after that... you have your minor in math and your a nut case.

in good company.

[Hexis]

Linear Algebra is what used to piss me off.

That calc stuff was easy in comparison.

[Ruler_Mark]

calc 3 isnt as bad as calc 2 imo. After i finish my computer engineering core i'll be 2 classes from a math minor joy!

[p8ntbal4me]

I HATE my pre-calculus class!

Ugh,.... the 1 reason I dont want to get up on Wednesday.

The part I hate the most is I'm a computer science major and I most likely will never use the class. Powers of 2 and powers of 3 is all you really need to know for computer networking.

[warpedmephisto]

Yeah, I'm glad I'm all done with my math classes - now just general engineering classes from here on out. Calc 1 blindsides you if you've never had any calc before, calc 2 just blows, calc 3 is cool and differential equations is pretty easy.

I will say tho Differential Equations was the easiest of the calc.
Keep your head down, and you will make it through it.
