I love science, and I hate math.

Am I alone here?

>> No.2343844

Nah, you're just doin' it wrong.

>> No.2343849

No, I'm with you, bro.

I don't hate math, I'm just not very good at it.

>> No.2343857

You are not alone

>> No.2343862

OP here, I enjoy statistics and math (up to college algebra)

But after that, shit just gets crazy. That's why engineering and physics freak me out.

>> No.2343897

I hate math, but it's more of a chore than something I straight-up can't do.

Math fucking blows donkey dick on a hot Sunday afternoon and by math I mean the real shit like all the different forms of Calculus =[

So just do chemistry or biology. The real science is about math, pussy.

>> No.2344062

If you're only sciencing because you are interested in the material popularizers of science purport, you're not a real scientist.

If you use math, you will chase skirt and bang the bongo drums like fucking Feynman.

>> No.2344063

I love math, but I suck at it. Gonna major in comp sci next year, and I'm really scared.

>> No.2344072

I enjoy math, but neuroscience tends to use more stats than math.

>> No.2344111

>>2343942
The real shit? Calculus is just the tip of the iceberg, buddy.

@OP, I'm actually the exact opposite way. Aside from some physics, and maybe some theoretical biology, most science is a waste of my time in my opinion.

>> No.2344118

>>2344111
And medical science? That's a waste of time?

>> No.2344123

Don't ever quote a wiki link when trying to prove a point. If you want, I can go remove the word 'science' entirely from that article and it no longer applies to the argument.

>> No.2344152

>>2343830
im exactly the opposite. i enjoy math and related topics.
i fucking hate most of my study. a lot of conjecture and far out speculation.

i like math better than science

>> No.2344159

>>2343849

That's what I'm saying man.

Love math, but I've never been really good at it.

>> No.2344163

You're not alone, i hate it too.

But i understand its importance, so i even though it gives me a hard time i still try.
I hope there is a time where Computers can do all the math for us.

>> No.2344171

I don't agree. Math is amazing. Even Physics feels inferior to Math, especially since it relies solely on mathematical feasibility when it ventures into the truly unknown.

>> No.2344179

>>2344171
OP here, I agree that math is extremely important, I just hate doing it. Wish I could leave it to the computers and the mathematicians.

Math is great, interesting, but when come the time to do some stuff, here comes the engineers with their engineer superpowers.

Suck it monkeys.

You're one of those wannabe failure scientists, who hates the rigorous scientific method involving maths and only selfishly likes the conclusions science gives.

I'm the same. I don't hate math I just never got to the point that I was comfortable. Also, I have a shit memory but the weird thing is I totally am enthralled with science and I read scientific material all of the time BUT

I read the edited versions of published articles so who knows if I would be able to figure them out on my own. haha

*sigh* perhaps in another life I will be good at math and be a microbiologist or astrophysicist.

I'm the same way. I love chemistry and biology, math, not so much. I mean I understand the importance and it's value it's not just "hurr durr mafh is dum" but I just find no enjoyment in doing it.
