I helped my daughter with a paper and she got a bunch of red marks...she was delighted.

My Dad helped with a polysci paper, we got a C. He wrote the Prof... even though I pleaded for him not to.

Bachelor degree minor was English...I was appalled. My daughter brings it up after one glass of wine.

Hah, hah! Some typesetter on his last day at work had some fun. A proofreading editor was soon on her last day at work.

I couldn't fit calculus in my busy HS schedule (foreign language, physics, chemistry, trig). I still managed to eventually get a PhD. Had a hard time with stats classes though. I don't see how anyone could ever build (or dig) anything without at least passing HS trig.

I bet 90% of stuff is/has been built or dug by people who didn’t even take trig.

Many of us ditchdiggers rely on design pros who did pass calc but failed common sense. They like it when we cover their azzes but seem to forget quickly.

Humor aside, statistics is way more relevant to understanding the modern world than calc for all but the engineers/math/physics folks.

I'm a computer guy.

There are 10 kinds of people. Those that understand binary and those that don't.

Also, I would argue that's just not true. People may not engage in solving problem using calculus, but it's used behind the scenes by almost everyone almost everyday.

Uses of Calculus in Everyday Life

Calculus is used every day and everywhere you turn, from bridges and buildings to public health systems and weather forecasts. It's even behind the search engine you used to find this article.
