No, end it all now while you still can. Go do a trade.

My IQ is 114 (last tested when I was around 16) and I'm doing a lot better at maths now than I ever did in secondary school. I was getting consistent Fs in school, now I'm making Bs in Eng. maths.

Use Khan Academy and StudyPug, it's well worth it, anon. Don't give up.

I want to be good at math though. Like really good. Like those mfs that mentally solve complex equations by just looking at them and they don't even practice maths. Such an unfair existence.

Mathematics is really easy. You can think of all of mathematics as this chain of concepts. The problem for most people arises when a link in that chain is missing. It makes understanding other concepts extremely difficult because they are built on top of that missing piece of the puzzle. So if you’re struggling fill in the gaps. Maths will always be about the basics. It’s a hierarchical structure based on fundamental axioms. The way you arrive at truths outside those axioms is by applying rules to them and building towards then. You are not allowed to skip ahead and if you try, good luck doing anything useful with what you arrive at or moving past it.

Well I think it's one of those abilities that if you had it you wouldn't care as much about it. For example, I have written computer program that solves complex equations, and ones that make cool looking plots of their solutions. Once I learned how to do it, I stopped caring about being able to do it. I actually had more fun learning how to do it oddly enough

Well, while you can still do well in maths, I'm not sure that's possible. Some niggas just built different, you feel me?
