Look at it this way

Julie-
I am not trying to insult you, but rules are rules. It doesn't matter who hates math and who loves it. It is a part of the college curriculum and the reason for that is the administration obviously feels that
you should be capable of it.

At the primary level, students are expected to reach certain goals such as addition and subtraction. The same holds true for a college student. Would it be acceptable for a first grader to say that they don't feel that this math is important, therefore they don't have to learn it? Of course not. It just seems from your posts that you don't feel that you

should be forced to take this math. Please try and see things in our perspective, I know math can be difficult but it truly is a necessity in order for you to graduate. A true teacher is one who motivates and inspires their students to do their absolute best by hardwork and effort. Please take this and apply it to your own studies. I am sure you will get the hang of the math. Teach and learn by example. Good luck with everything.
