[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This isn’t just an admissions question. Calculus is routinely used in economics, statistics, finance, data science, and some quantitative fields within the social sciences. Math teacher is just wrong.[/quote] Raise your hand if you use calculus in your job! Crickets, I'm sure, for most of us. Yeah, I took calculus as a senior in high school - big whoop. Never ever used it again. None of my highly educated family members/friends all with good jobs use it either. Admittedly, we are not in STEM fields (but this jibes with the middle school teachers take).[/quote]
