    Default What's the highest level of math you've taken?

    I'll be getting a poll up soon, but the highest level of math I've taken so far has been Calc II. I felt as if I had been lobotomized every time I dealt with series.

    I didn't even make it past algebra and geometry I in high school. I had to get math credit through a correspondance course...

    When I took the ASVAB, let's just say I sucked at the math section...

    Got all my college math done while still in HS. Thankfully I never had to take a math class again.

    Computers take care of thing now! I did take up to calc III. Also a lot of physics and aerodynamics. I use very little of any of it today.

    If it makes you feel better, one of my degrees is in math, and Calc II still holds a special place in my heart as a "most hated" class.

    If I hadn't gotten it out of the way with AP Calculus BC in high school, it probably would have impacted my college path.

    Calc3 was actually kinda cool. I will say, too, the accents of my professors at CU made some classes a lot harder. I don't think I showed up to more than 25% of lectures. Recitations were hit-or-miss.

    Oh, and I definitely recommend Khan Academy's courses. Also check out MIT's OpenCourseWare. It's a great time to be learning.

    Got out of HS with no math. Took a year of statistics and two years of accounting in college. Couldn't do algebra to save my life. The first two jobs out of college were math based. Ever tried to figure the square footage of a room with sixteen sides?

    i made it through diff q and matrix theory before i switched majors, but honestly i don't remember a thing about any of the math i learned really. i suppose it taught me how to solve things on my own with that background but when friends ask me about calc 3 and on i can't tell them anything. its literally a blur. calc 2 was probably the hardest all things considered. math is great but frankly a lot of it ends up being useless unless you are dealing with physics directly in your profession.
