The exams are different here in Scotland.. I did standard grade maths and passed with a 2, then when I started higher maths I remember having this conversation with my maths teacher:
Me: excuse, me I don't like these simultaneous equations
Teacher: why not?
Me: cos I can't do them and to be quite honest I don't really understand why anybody would need to do them. I can't think of any time in my life when ill need to do a quick simultaneous equation
Teacher: what if you do maths at university
Me:
Me: ha2 well I think you and I both know that that will never happen bye
....and I never returned to maths! I used the time instead for zany common room fun..erm, I mean study periods
