Is university math less frustrating than high school math?

I have problems with trig, calculus and logarithms, and I hope I can skip these areas and study some other types of math on my own, like statistics. Is that a reasonable thing to do, or am I stuck at a math celling in which I must pass everything to get to the next level? I loved math until grade 7 when calculators were permitted and I spent my time playing with the scientific/graphics calculator trying to figure out what every button does.

I know that success in math is dependent on how well one masters the previous level, but I would like to take a short cut around and see if any university math is available to learn without having mastery in, logarithms, calculus and trig. Can someone point me in the right direction?
