Re: be honest

You don't have to be great at math to do physics, you just have to work hard. It helps to have that intuitive grasp of it, but it's not necessary. Math is like music in that, if you're naturally talented, sure it'll be loads easier, but you can achieve the same performance if you practice your ass off. My third year E&M prof failed second year calc, but worked at it and did it over again and well, now he's a professor. I was great at math until it got to university level (which then started to kick my ass) but I got through it.

I think the thing is that those who have to work harder at math also have to work really hard at their other courses and the workload becomes too much. It's very draining.

Yeah. It's a lot of practice even if you ARE good at math. I failed second year calc too, but I tried harder and I could do that shit in my sleep now. There's so many methods and processes, and a lot of them will look or start out similar and then it gets confusing. Or maybe that's third-year differential equations giving me nightmares again.

But it's true - when you add on E&M, quantum physics, thermodynamics to that, the workload is just...

... hang on, I think I feel my brain shutting down again :(
