Are they born with the gene to become a genius? Is it from hard work? I am mathematically challenged after the basic four, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

i think it is a right brain left brain thing-at a very early age i could do math that was way beyond my years and to this day i find it faster to do in my head than with calculator-when i was young i couldnt understand way people would have to learn math-i know now that it isnt the norm to do what i do-i dont think you can become a genius but should be able to learn the basics if you work at it-lots of love keep the peace old hippie

How does Michael Jordan become so good?
There's natural ability and hard work involved. I have 2 math degrees and still dont' consider myself a math genius. The math geniuses of the world are few and far between and I doubt they hang out on yahoo boards.

i dont know about others but for me it always came easily some people just arent that good with numbers and i always had someone to push me but help me alot. and in a way math doesnt really change its still those same basic four but they change it around and find different ways to use it, those are the foundations of all math oh yeah and be a perfectionist the best mathaticians ive met were all somewhat perfectionists so hard work can do wonders

Well then, you sure stand a lousy chance of becoming a math genius. I'm one for my age, but all the above factors apply. Also, you need a good interest in math.

People becomes math geniuses because they work hard to learn the magical world of mathematics. They don't tell themselves that their not good at it, instead mathematicians tell themselves that they can do it. If you follow what I said, I promise you to good in any form of math.:)

You basicaly practice, and practice untill you get the right answer, but also keep in mind that not everybody gets a mathematical problem alway with the right answers. it takes time and effort ( again just practice)
Good Luck

It's all about trying and motivation. You have to want to be good at math. All the people I know that are bad at math keep telling themselves that very thing. If you don't get something, don't blame it on you being mad at math! Just keep trying until you understand. No one gets EVERYTHING, not even Newton or Euclid.

definitely genetics - if you are challenged with the easy stuff, there's no way you can become a math genius
it's like "either you get it or you don't " is the way I see it with math/science.

Some people just have the mind for it.

It's basically natural.
