I'm worried about my future. I'm no good at math (can't even do algebra) because of a brain injury I had at birth. I guess I won't get a good job.
While most technological or science careers require a good background of algebra, statistics, algorithms, calculus etc there are plenty of avenues you can go that do not need a forefront of math. I would talk with an advisor at your institution for advice on this and what your best options are. Sent from my XT1080 using Tapatalk
You can find plenty of career paths that don't require much math. I'm a writer. I want to be an author. I only really have to do math if I write about it. How cool is that?
But the only jobs that don't require math are menial labor jobs. I'm short, and I'm no good at math. Is it any wonder I have no confidence?
So, you're too good to work menial labor? Also... the short thing again. Life's not fair. Deal with it.
You know what else doesn't require math? I dunno. However many jobs only require a basic understanding of algebra, such as jobs in the field of retail management. - - Auto Merge - - Are you any good at programming?
A little. I guess I'll have to work at McDonald's all my life. I deserve to have a good, well-paying job.
By the look of it, you're unwilling to put in the extra effort to straighten your standing with math. If you're not willing to do that much, don't expect to get very much out. You reap what you sow.
Trust this advice. I'm doing bad in math myself and I have been trying to turn my grade around in math myself. It also didn't help that I forgot my Mid-term packet for review which is worth a quiz grade. Damnit! Dude... what?
I said in the opening post that I had a brain injury at birth that affected my ability to do math. Didn't anyone read? I was in resource math most of my school career, and I scored in the 8% in math on my PSAT. I'm going to have to settle for a low-paying job, aren't I?
