Nope! None of those! I sucked at math but don't miss any of it. I can keep my check book straight. That's all I need!

Took very low-level Algebra in High School back in the 80s. Yes, I DO need it now...not for work, but in order to be able to transfer out of community college to a 4-year institution, I needed that and then some.

When they prepare you for stuff in High School, I'm learning that it's not about the material that you've learned specifically, but it's about learning how to be a good student, how to work under the pressure of time guidelines, and how to work with others. It's all a learning experience that, even though it might not seem like it now, is very worth your time in the end.

yes, and i still have them now as major subjects...physics & algebra are very much applicable in real life but calculus is for the more technical people ...we use algebra & physics in everyday life: like driving fast or slow on a highway, when you pitch that baseball in a game, a free throw in a basketball game..almost everything! ^_^

For Math I took:
Algebra 1
Geometry
Algebra 2(AKA Trig)
Pre-Calculus

For Physics:
Physics my Jr. Year
AP Physics Sr. Year

Yes, I used Calculus and Trig in AP Physics, plus I'll use that stuff in Engineering when I go to college in a couple weeks.

I hate math, I took Algerbra, and then just took whatever easy maths that I could. I never would have made it thru calculus or physics. And I don't think that I have used any of it since.

I took Algebra's 1 & 2, and they're both pointless. I never stopped in a bank line and plugged my checking account into variables...

Yes, all three.
(j/k....it was consumer math for me!)

I took algebra in college, though, and I do use it in everyday life...at least the most simple forms.
