Chemical is
But again you learn every needed math formulae in each chemistry class

I think modern education culture place too much emphasis on "understanding" instead of just doing practice problems. You don't really understand the course if you cannot do the problems.

Couple weeks into calculus 1 now, doing well, already past the chain rule and beyond. Quotient rule was a joke. Product rule remains my specialty.

I ask my professor his thoughts on quantum mechanics and partial derivatives. He's impressed i know about the subject. We converse after class for some time, sharing mathematical insights; i can keep up. He tells me of great things ahead like series and laplacians. I tell him i already read about series on wikipedia. He is yet again impressed at my enthusiasm. What a joy it is to have your professor visibly brighten when he learns of your talents.

And now I sit here wondering what it must be like to be a brainlet, unable to engage your professor as an intellectual peer.

All of the deep conversations you people must miss out on because you aren't able to overcome the intellectual IQ barrier that stands in the way of your academic success... it's so sad.

My professor and I know each other on first name basis now, but i call him Dr. out of respect.

And yet here you brainlets sit, probably havent even made eye contact with yours out of fear that they will gauge your brainlet IQ levels.

A true shame, but just know it is because i was born special that i am special. I can't help being a genius, nor can my professor.

Two of a kind is two flocks in a bush.

Illusion of the competences.

I mean I did have this in mind

But I feel like my point still stands

does he do jiu jitsu tough? I bet he can't talk jiu jitsu with me, you should do jiu jitsu, everyone is doing jiu jitsu

>remember the rules and what to do

You're doing it wrong. Understand the math, don't memorize.

>>8616829
>doing practice problems
literally the epitome of brainletism
but go on, memorise every steps, every exercises and delude yourself into thinking you're nothing but a trained monkey

>>8616810
>everything makes perfect sense to me

You need to do exercises you dumbass. Also reformulate the notes in your own words and pictures. Do practice tests. Do past exams in as close to exam conditions as possible - including time limits. Reddo example problems by writing out the problem definition and then solving the problem *with the book closed*.

Rereading notes and saying "oh yeah that makes sense" is the most useless shit tier method of studying ever.

Book "a mind for numbers" explains
