Do you like math? I get the impression that people's opinions here tend to be on the extremes.

I don't like math. Never was good at it.

(People have even called me dumb because I suck at it so much. :lol: )

I like math but I was maybe a little above average with it. Which compared to a lot of others, about average really. I just answered both topics.

I learned a lot about them, maybe I should learn a bit more about how the ancient Egyptians were when it came to maths, to counter things a bit. :P

I enjoy learning about mathematical concepts (especially geometrical concepts) but I hate actually solving equations and other mundane arithmetic. I actually have a strong degree of aversion towards doing arithmetic because in 3rd grade we (my class) got assigned a ridiculous number of problems (as many as 200 problems, 200!) as homework and that left me quite literally traumatized.

Algebra is fun. Geometry can go die in a fire, though.

I used to dislike it, but I've recently taken an interet in learning more about it so I've been doing a lot of reading. It's not bad. :)

I like math, I'm really good at mental math, but I hate algebra. :x

The extremes just talk louder. That doesn't mean most people feel that way.

I like math, but only as far as it's useful. I have less interest in "pure" mathematics. I don't think calculation is fun, but the logic is interesting.

I like it immensely. But that's only because I've taken the extra time to appreciate it by becoming familiar with it's global and microscopic connections.

I tend not to like it, but don't hate it.

I'm good at math, mainly at mental math. I passed all primary and secondary school math subjects with excellent grades, but I began having learning problems on high school.

Maybe my problem is that I need extra time to understand new math concepts beyond algebra, that's the reason why I failed two times Math 5 last year (and I haven't passed that subject yet). I can be slow, but when I learn something I really learn it and never forget it.
