I enjoy the Physics and Mechanics, advanced math is just a necessary evil.

This is how I view it. But with a slight difference. I can easily do the math if I am looking to figure out
something in particular. I have no concept or drive to perform mathmatical calculations for their own sake. I find it mind numbing to do simple algebra equations, but I aced every chemistry test I had.
C's and D's in algebra but I had a 98% average in geometry for the year.
Go figure!? *
