I thought I was bad at math, but it turns out I just hadn't gotten to the really interesting stuff yet. Currently reading about calculus of variations and fractional calculus for fun.

You aren't always born with math proficiency anon. You train for and learn it. Dont fall for the brain memes.

If you don't have jewish ancestry of some type you shouldn't be taking math as a profession. Just become a liberal arts major or, gasp, even worse, an engineer.

Just polish the shit. I dropped out senior year of my math/cs degree. I'm reading (pic related) this for fun/research.

To OP: we can all be racers without a car or the experience

Look at some rigorous math and see if it interests you at all. Linear algebra from Axler or Hoffman and Kunze, although this could be very boring considering you took an undergrad course. Analysis from Rosenlicht and Rudin. This is kind of like rigorous calculus but it's more than that. I enjoyed learning it from Rosenlicht a lot. Abstract algebra from Herstein or Artin. I liked Herstein's Topics in algebra much more than Artin. Artin focused a ton on linear algebra and geometry which wasn't my taste, but it's still a well loved book.

What about the French. I have noticed that most of the math and physics books I've read have been written by jews.

I think if I can plug and chug I'm ok, but linear really fucked me up

Feeling this right now, and I still have to take differential equations and then advanced boundary value problems :/

This was literally me. Failed Calc II twice before taking it seriously, and now got A in Calc 3, A in LA (non rigorous), A in RA, A in topology, B+ in PDE, A in LA (rigorous)

To all the people who think they suck:

What's your study routine like? I want hard evidence you actually suck at math, not life all together.

>>8840429
what's yours?

>>8840429
I don't study much, I just show up for the exam and hope for a C-

It's more of a brainlet thing for me
