Sieg67 Posted May 24, 2019 Share Posted May 24, 2019 (edited) Easy once you know how it works. I see people shitting on common core but it actually makes sense.  A large reason why so many people have trouble with math here in the US is because we're basically just told to memorize things.  Also you should realize that just because something works on paper doesn't make it's going to work as well in your head. From what I've seen from common core, it teaches you to break down the numbers so that it's easier to figure out without something to write on or a calculator. Common core looks retarded on paper but makes a lot of sense if you actually think about it.

Ric Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Never seen that shit. I was always good at multiplication/divison but that's it. Never doing my homework might have had something to do with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never doing my homework might have had something to do with that. I made it up to business calculus before i stop learning the maths because depression kicked my ass hard during university. Shhhiiid...if i had found good meds back then i probably could have finished all the calculus classes. They should really teach everyone business calculus tho because mathematicians basically sit there and figure out how to exploit the very last penny out of people to maximize profitability. I found it insidious but my brain was really sick during that class so my POV might be skewed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
