I try and try soooo friggin hard to understand any kind if math other than very basic math and I just cannot pick up on it. It's the way our brains are wired mostly. I understand and I know it'd nit because of anything you are doing on purpose. I dread math because of this. My high school math teacher gave me a passing grade because he just completely knew that it was no act.

Nothing wrong with his grammar, he just mis-spelled "similar"

Yeah this is pretty normal, some people just aren't maths-minded. Try to develop some of your other skills. You can succeed in life without knowing how to solve simultaenous equations! :)

well the more you tell yourself that you cant do it, the less of a chance that you will understand it in the end. think positive, one step at a time and you will figure it out.

It's not your brain, it's you who "refuses" to take Algebra. Stop whining and keep trying.

Keep trying!! i also can't do maths during high school. but now, in college i do better in maths and get a good grade for it. Actually, MATHS subject is the easiest subject than others. like when i compare maths and physics, i gonna choose maths as the easier subject than physics. PHYSICS is most difficult subject like hell!

@: Devilsummoner
It's about what you like... Math is all about understanding. If you don't want to understand I don't know what to do for you. But you can be wrong about math. I know people who also didn't like it, and then started to like when they become to understand.

to Devilsummoner:
It maybe depends on what course you are taking and what math area you are studying. I'm not saying math is harder just because I'm taking a course of math XP, but there are math areas that aren't that easy. (Just wasn't able to shut up after reading your coment XP)

Yep, l know l missed 3 months of school..and did not get the 'first chapter' and never found the missing link..and maths and algebra just did zig zags around my head. I have loads of other qualifications so l do not mind, and have managed to but carpets and decorate and cater for many and solve problems by just knowing basic multiplication, devision and fractions ....and l might add..l usually solve things quicker than mt dearly beloved who is a genius with maths. He thinks logical and l think lateral.
