[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]don't borrow trouble. you learned it once, you can learn it again. or hire a tutor. or maybe your kid won't have these struggles.... just don't project your worry. the truth is this: nothing taught in high school is really all that advanced or hard. calculus included. you have a phd, so you have the skills to handle this. [/quote] OP here. I don't have a Ph.D, just an MA., and I almost failed calculus in college. I was failing going into the final exam and crammed all night with my sister to claw my way up to a C-. At my college, you had to take calc, otherwise I wouldn't have gone near it with a ten foot pole! I won't even tell you what I got on my SAT/GRE math portion; let's just say it's a good thing I did well on the other sections. But, point taken. My kids actually seem quite good at math and probably have already surpassed DH's and my ability! Tutors and outside help it will be, if necessary![/quote]
