Do you find Math Boring?

I do.

I find science much more interesting.

I don't know, Numbers just seem so...bland to me.

I guess that's because I'm a writer at heart. When I compare the vast, great and colorful worlds that words portray to me as an endearing and delightful mental adventure to the Pythagorean theorem....Well, I just can't see the beauty in the latter.

Excruciating. I love history not math.

I find math about as interesting as an episode of Suite Life of Zack and Cody.

I think I consider math to be handily the most interesting academic subject that I'm acquainted with.

Yes, math is very boring.

I was the Asian kid that struggled in math during high school....

Study higher-level maths and you would think otherwise.

Like you, I prefer science (even though I recognize math will always be a part of it). I have an easier time with it as well, which may partially explain the lack of interest.

math is the foundation of science guy.

I find both math and science very dull, I'm a history man myself.

No because it actual means something unlike poetry. I feel like Calculus should be mandatory in order to graduate, while only grade 10 english and history/social studies should be required. Math and science will actually help you in life.

I think I may be the only one here who likes English... or, well, writing.

Nope, I find it interesting and useful. It gives us the tools we need in science and engineering to model real life situations.

Boring but not hard to learn. Just requires a lot of your attention which I lack in.

I find science a lot funner though.

Erm, pre-calc, I would argue, is among the most useful math classes I've taken to date in terms of practical applications.

It's greatly under appreciated. As an electrical engineer and hobby programmer, I use it everyday without fail. Even calculus. As for pure math, I actually do find it boring. I need to apply it in a practical manner before anything really interests me.

I hate pointless math (i.e. school math classes) Math with practical applications is very interesting however. Physics is a perfect example. Physics is awesome.

Math becomes boring I find for most students because teachers never really apply the math you learn into actual context. 9/10 times I had a math teacher that just assigned problems out of the textbook and they had no context behind them. Then you go on to take Physics, Chemistry, or computer math and it actually serves a purpose and has a reasoning behind it. Only then can I find it interesting

Maths can be interesting sometimes. But in general, it's annoying.

Quick list of math classes I've taken:

Cal I, II, III

Intermediate Cal

Advanced Cal

Linear Algebra

Ordinary Differential Equations

Complex Variables and Transforms

I love math

I don't mind math, but I do find it difficult. I have taken up to linear algebra and calc ii and I enjoyed them but they were at the stretch of my math skills.

I love mathematics. In fact, I'm a mathematician. I finished my Master of Science degree in Mathematics back in December.

Algebra, trigonometry, etc. might feel boring, but when you're a math major, you learn about branches of math that you never even knew existed.

My favorite branch of math is topology (the mathematical study of shape and form). I'm taking a break from it right now to study some abstract algebra (the branch of math that deals with the theory of algebra).

I find it complicated and confusing. At least math beyond basic level.

Excruciating. I love history not math.

Me too.

Yes. It's painful to learn all those concepts in geometry and higher that I'm never going to use in my life.

Boring math is boring, 'cause it's ezpz, fun math is tedious, but fun.

And science needs math, you can't really make a valid, useful, observation w/o it!

eg. Earth goes around the Sun. Which would be a little more useful, if you could add in how many days it took, but that'd require math.

History? Ewww, so boring. Ya's are backwards, I say.

No, it's my major.

No, not really.

A lot of everyday problems become ridiculously easy if you know a bit of math.

Although I have to say as an engineering physics student I do find the teaching methods to be too stringent.

I'm ok with that. I want to be a history teacher so maybe I'll make history as interesting as I find it for some.
