yeah but it's also the most boring (I'm an engineering grad, so I like math and science). All of the facts you have to memorize. Maybe he just doesn't have a good memory, I don't, but I understand how things work, so you apply those principals. Fact memorization doesn't mean you're smart, necessarily.

Bite your tongue! Math is the damn devil, naw seriously I think I may be mildly retarded when it comes to math. History and English were the easiest and funnest for me, Lit is currently my favorite. Like Western Civ too.
