Do you necessarily have to be a genius to succeed in math?

Pretty sure creativity is genetic.
But sometimes it's luck.
Terry Toa chose analysis as his choice of specialisation, had he chosen physics or something, he would have been more successful.

It's the most genetic trait, and it can't be trained.

He’s correct in the sense it’s the only factors you can control. So it was probably to right thing to say to not hurt the children’s feelings

I don't understand it. You people keep typing out the quotes manually. Why not just ctrl+c, ctrl+v it? Or simply highlight the text you want to quote and press on the number: it will quote automatically.
Baffles me to no end. Do you also type out the post id manually?

low iq detected, incapable of reflecting on whether you leave behind traces of identity in anonymous posts is a clear sign of retardation and as discussed in this thread, such things are incurable and entirely determined by genes. I'm sorry you had to find out this way anon!

the main differentiating factor is if someone had been introduced to proof based math early on or not. pretty much all the guys i know who actually can do math have math circles/olympics background, while rest of us start from the "solve for x" mindset
