Honestly, I don't understand why it takes some people fifty examples to learn a new rule of exponents that my teacher already explain ten seconds ago!

Because some of us don't have a brain wired for math.

Most people only need basic math in life.  But, thats just opinion...

And yea, what Yanlin said... everyone has their strengths and weaknesses...

Personally, my brain handles math well after some repetition and detailed explanations. But not if somebody just throws a rule at me and tells me to use it. For example, integrals. I didn't understand the reason it works. I couldn't even use it until I had a good grasp of WHY it works. My brain just needs things to make SENSE before it remembers them.

Communist lesbians...

Mmm...

Working together for the greater good? Common ownership through control of the means of production?

They normally seem to be the hairy butch type who want to kill men in a sea of organic vegetables.

the brain isn't hard wired, its hand built, and easy to change if you know right were to change it(by thinking).

not that school would teach you anything remotely useful like that.

Not all of us have time to devote to math.

The elementary I went to, Lowell, banned any kind of made-up or imaginary game, with a penalty if you were caught playing them. We were only allowed to play real games, like basketball, handball, dodgeball, and catch, etc.
