Why is Math so hard to grasp ?

Asked by Scarlett (915points) October 17th, 2010

I never understood math, it’s like reading chinese or another language to me which doesn’t make sense to me.

I don’t know how to get better at it, keep on practicing ?

I don’t know why it’s so hard for me to understand, but every other subject – english, government, history, science, is so much easier for me.

Is there a reason why I’m so bad at it ? I tried to study but I just don’t get the point of doing it.

I’m a really artistic, creative, and philosophical person so I think this is why I’m just dumbfounded by it… Because 2+2 will always equal 4, and there isn’t any depth to it.

I know how to do elementary and middle school, but as far as geometry and algebra I just really suck.. and I have no interest in it.

I wonder if it’s normal to get all A’s in every subject but completely fail Math ? It’s the only subject I’ve ever hated, and don’t have a use for, but I know it’s unavoidable :(
