which do you dislike more .... MATH or Science ...why ?

i dislike science too ... it is soo hard... esp.physics and chemistry..biology is fine.. i love math !! its soo fun esp. geometry !

I disagree completely...mathematics is more about learning from others than any other subject I know...surround yourself with ppl no better than you, and you will never be challenged, and will lose ability over time.  Work with someone who is constantly pushing your potential, you will be getting better every single day.

I love math!\n\nFirstly, it takes a lot less memorization than most subjects. Sure you have to remember a few formulas, and trig values, but compare that to the massive amounts of facts in history or law and bow down to the simplicity of math ;)\n\nSecondly, I'm good at it. That's a good enough reason.\n\nI also like how some problems look ridiculously simple, but solving them is really hard, sometimes near impossible (Goldbach's conjecture, for example, can be stated in one simple sentence, and a middle schooler could understand it. But it hasn't been proven for hundreds of years).\n\nAnd yeah, I hate tests and homework like any sane student. If that's how they teach math at a young age here, we'll have to surrender to India and China soon. The way that I got interested in math was through the use of math games (those rubber band thingies with the geoboard thingy!) and competitions. \n\nI remember in 5th grade, every week, we had a multiplication table contest. Whoever could fill out the table (from 1 to 12, I think) fastest would win some sort of prize. Do that nowadays, and you'll have parents whining to the teachers about how their kid always loses.

i do. i have geometry honors now and i hate it soooo much there are toooo many theorems to remember i wish i could go back and do algebra again.

Why is this in Science & Math?\nO_O

Both have the same trouble in math. \n\nThe statistic is that boys and men stay interested in math longer as they get older. \n\nGirls and women chose an interest in other things.

I think because math is not intuitive, it's logical. \n\nIntuitive things tend to be emotional. It's a gut feeling. Whereas, if I ask you to determine the value of adding two quantities together, that takes thought. \n\nMath follows a specific structure. An error in logic, will not  give you the value you seek. That is very frustrating. \n\nSecondly, when you are learning math in school, you don't see any real world value to it. What should be taught with math are real world applications of it. I think that would make math more appealing. \n\nThink about it, if I tell most high school kids that knowing math can help them program video games, they'd be much more eager to learn it. If I show them how math can be used to make money, they'd be pretty eager to learn it. \n\nInstead, we use rote memorization and ambiguous story problems. It's no wonder people hate math. \n\nActually, like any subject, if you don't see the point in learning it, you won't get any value from it.

science fair? haha i hate that stuff. it was mandatory in my \n8th grade science class and i messed up my topic and its due tomorrow

this one is better  MATH IC-MATH IIC-PHYSISC, but actually both of them are great!  get a good grade and you would be set to go....'

We all have our likes and dislikes.  Maybe math is not your strongest subject.  I am positive you are good at something else.

hahaha, yes calculus is much harder than algebra 2. you see, there is a reason why you must complete algebra 1 & 2, as well as geometry and trigonometry before you procede to calculus, it is a combination of all, plus many many other things that you have never heard of and will probably never use unless you become a rocket scientist. \n\nmuch much harder

Amen. I would not mind better grammar too, but everyone has shortcomings. Mine is math.

It is better to have an algebra background before taking geometry.  It is not absolutely necessary, but certainly better.

I consider as basic science the mathematics. But after this , the physics seems the more basic science. I understand that people prefer consider physics as basic science since it is more realistic than maths

I like Calculus. You learn how to think logically in order to solve problems.  Plus, in Calculus, you'll learn why some things in math are the way they are. For example, have you ever wondered why the area of a circle is pi times the radius squared? Well, in Calculus you'll learn why.

acctually I don't hate science. Science is a good thing and it is base of study. Everybody need to know science.

I don't hate either of them.  But I originally started out studying chemistry in college.  It went fine until the second Organics course.\n\nDon't know how far you have gotten in life from your question, but this is what I ran into.\n\nA girl who let all the liquid boil out of her flask because she was more interested in talking to her boyfriend than watching what she was doing.\n\nAcids and bases that were far beyond what I felt safe around.\n\nA fuming flask we were all supposed to pour our chemicals into, after we were told never to combine chemicals when we did not understand what they did.\n\nPhysics, at the college level, was just boring.  I enjoyed it in high school.  In college it was always taught at 8 in the morning, like I was really up for that.  Lot of calculus involved.  I like math, but I like discrete math not continuous.  Actually I like set theory and number theory.  \n\nSo I ended up a programmer.\n\nMy cat's in heat, what's new with you?
