[quote=Anonymous]The problem with math and science is that, not only is there a answer, but you have to understand how to get the answer. And you have to understand the assumptions, etc. In the more qualitative sciences, people use words to describe what is observed. For example, ruby is red. But now, we understand why a ruby is red, and it has to do with atomic physics of the properties and physics of light scattering. In the quantitative sciences, we use mathematical models to describe what is happening. That requires understanding the advanced math and the physical models. And if we do something wrong, the consequences can be huge. If you look at IQ's for majors, Physics and Astronomy are top. [/quote]
