I’ll admit that its more like algebra-to-half-an-engineering-degree. I got divorced a while back and don’t have the resources to finish grad school.
Also, I would say that it’s not so much that I was ever inherently bad at math. I never had to study at it or anything. I personally just think I was socialized to not like it.
I’ve read somewhere (but of course I can’t find it now, as usual) that when males standardize test really high in math, they are more likely to be worse at language arts. However when females test really high in math, they are more likely to test even better at language arts.
I know this was the case for me. Math was what I was “bad” at. The argument went on to say that this was perhaps one reason why females were more likely to choose to go into liberal arts than STEM fields.
