How much math have you learned?

If I would have stayed in school, I'd probably know a lot more than what high school taught me.

I always liked math and was pretty good at it. I only took up to college algebra (I think similar to precalc) because that's all my major required. I got a 100% in the class though and I don't think I missed a problem the whole semester. Sometimes I think I should have taken more math classes, but I don't really want to pay for something I won't use.

It also surprised me how little a lot of people actually understand math. We have do do a SMALL amount of simple math in physical therapy, and I was really surprised how difficult it was for some of my classmates when we were in our PT assistant classes

I chose the ones that I've taken and others include business statistics, accounting 1, accounting 2, cost accounting, business finance; I'm sure there's more but I graduated college 9 years ago so I can't remember.

All kinds of math. I'm glad to be done with the math classes.

I'm currently in Trig, I've taken the first half of Stats, and I still have to take the second half of Stats and Calc I. Thankfully I'm lucky enough to have a math major for a boyfriend. Can you say free math tutor?! It's been 7 years since I took my per-requisites, so I would have been screwed otherwise. The only problem is sometimes math time turns into sexy time. Which makes the math hard. Although I suppose that's one way to learn your special angles!

Aside from Geometry and something our school called "consumer math", math and I aren't really on speaking terms right now.

I do math only when I have to, and I really need to (and am planning to) start improving my skills in the math area.
I'm a writer and aspiring artist...I don't have much need for math in my daily life unless I'm doing bead stitching like peyote. x_x

Im fine up until imaginary numbers. Imaginary numbers is dumb concept to me. I understand it, but it seems out side everyday life.

Math was a subject I was good at so i excelled at it and sometimes taking more than one math class in high school. However I am sad to say if I didn't use it I lost it the good side is if i look at it for a while it does start to come back in pieces lol

In my work involving data manipulation, we use relatively simple equations to "solve problems".

I went up to calculus. And my boyfriend is an engineer so I've managed to retain some of it.

I'm not bad at math but I don't retain it at all. After math finals I just forgot everything, excluding statistics which I find interesting. I've taken the required algebra classes and that's as far as I went.

Learn to love derivatives because integrals will require you to know them like the back of your hand.

I'm taking Calc II and Linear Algebra right now. Next semester is Calc III (multivariable calculus) and summer I'm planning on taking Differential Equations.

The last math class I took was Geometry and I only passed because I had an awesome and super patient teacher. I suck at math and hate all of it.

I may have learned more than I indicated, but I took math classes in french so they'd be called something else
