    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.
    All I have in this world is my balls and my word and I don't break em for no one.

    I'm taking my college math right now.

    took the evaluation test when I enrolled and it showed I was deficient in my math knowledge to say the least.

    The semester just ended, I took the super intro basic stuff. No calculators allowed. I have to work up to the college stuff, but when I'm done, I'm done.

    but it's coming back to me, and much easier to deal with as a mature adult rather than the petulant child I was in jr. high.

    my math problems in school are a perfect example of a failure in the public school system.

    anyway, got an 87 on the final, and an A in the class.

    on the written/verbal part of of the eval test I got a perfect score.

    In machining classes we took some Trig but the majority of my math has been practical on the job stuff. Weight and balance, displacement etc when I went to AeroTech. I do pretty well as long as I can apply it to a real world situation.

    I took Algebra II/Trig as a sophomore in high school. I use math everyday as a motorcycle mechanic, but haven't used any of the advanced trigonometry since graduation. The algebra is used on a daily basis, which frustrates my apprentice no end, as he sucked at math in HS...
