I don't see where I'm going to use math. Besides for basic math. I am never going to use calculus.

....had i done the homework throughout the year, its not a very hard class. My teacher gives some pretty hard questions and very little time on the tests though. I'm still managing to get by with an 80, which sucks, but seeing how little work i put into the course i shouldnt be complaining about it. Next semester i'm trying my ass off though.

it is the last year.... the only bad thing is that universities might look at your grade 11 marks now more than grade 12 since we apply before semester 1 grade twelve is over. That bassically screws me over with my not to good chem or math marks.

Same here (as far as the homework goes). I never did any homework, and that's why I don't remember anything.
I've had this same math teacher for 2 years now, and she still calls me Brian (another guy in my class). He looked like me in grade nine, but now he has long hair and a beard.

When you need to figure out exactly how high your ball goes, silly.
What I want to know is: When in my life am I ever going to need to use imaginary numbers (square root of -1 = i).
Oh yeah, when I'm making an imaginary bridge. Right.

Imaginary numbers piss me off. Mathematicians ran into something that didn't exist; the square root of a negative number. But that wasn't good enough for them. So they said "Hey, let's make up a variable for it!". And POOF, you have imaginary numbers.

I wonder if there's actually a use for them...?
Where's Curtis when you need him?

True .. I don't have to worry about that though .. since I already have a college diploma they're more concerned with those marks rather than my highschool marks .. I haven't been in highschool since 1997 .. god I'm old
