What math have you learned?

Yeah I guess I just have a harder tme remembering some of the material but I tend to learn better when I have an understanding of the bigger picture rather than the "what we have to accomplish right now". Also I'm just a slower paced learner in general and I struggle when I have so many different things to learn at once. Also I'm not saying we should spend a huge amount of time refreshing ourselves on every single little detail on the past material, but we should have SOME time to remind ourselves of the general world of mathamatics we are treading in. Also sorry if I seemed a little ranty lol. I'm just passionate in our education system and it frustrates me in how much some of our political leaders and teachers do not care about what we learn, and we end up suffering directly as a result of it.

Well if you wanted to learn the "bigger picture" that pretty much requires you to major in mathematics ...  

Higher education is all about self motivation so I guess professors expect their students to handle reviews themselves plus there's always the option of community colleges where you can go at a slower pace too if one chooses to ... 

Yeah I'm not majoring in math lol. I guess I mean that on a basic level not a super complex one. But yeah once I get into college I'll probably become more motivated to ask my professors on material and stay after class and all that jazz. I plan on a 4 year degree instead of a community college, and I also want to be a software engineer (hopefully to make video games! But we will see ;) ) so I'm gonna end up taking a lot of math classes whether I like it or not.
