Yeah, it's a shame that math is taught mostly as procedures and not concepts. I was never much of a "memorizer," but once I got it I was good.

As such I got a "D" one 9 weeks in algebra 2, but later graduated as an engineer with over a 3.0. I think I just had to 1. work harder and 2. learn how I had to understand stuff, not just memorize.

That doesn't really surprise me at all yet it still manages to upset me quite a bit.
