    I was in advanced Math in school--to the point that I had my 4 years of high school Math done by the end of Junior year. It's not that I'm "stupid," it's more that it's been so long since I've taken a Math class that I wasn't feeling prepared to jump into Calculus. When I signed up, I knew almost nothing about this course, other than it fulfilled the requirement. Having seen the syllabus, I'll pass. I'm sure I'll figure something else out...

    Seems like the course would not be a good use of your time then...do you need a math course?

    I do understand about your reluctance to jump into Calculus. Not an easy thing to do if you've been away from math courses for a while. I'm glad I don't have to at this point...

    I need to have one more "Quantitative" course. Lab sciences count (already have Bio; reluctant to do another because 1 course=3 days/week and I don't have much time to spare). Math, too. Stat (which I already took). And some random ones. Astronomy is on the list, even though it's offered through the community college. I'll be checking to see if they're offering it this summer.

    Thanks for reminding me. That's my next task. I also need to go across the street and get my car inspected.
