I agree. I had very mixed success with maths in school. The topics I was the best was things I could understand. E.g. calculation of probabilities or how long it would take for debt to be repaid with certain parameters. But as math got abstract I got lost, because for me it was a just a bunch of formulars that seemed arbitary to me. Maybe it was me or maybe it was the teachers failing to explain why we're doing what we're doing.
