Studying math makes my brain fried.

Getting the "easy" questions wrong (or worse, not knowing how to solve them at all) makes me feel dumb.

This should NOT be this hard.

This is why avoid math all that I can. Math has the great ability to make me feel dumb in a very short period of time.

Sadly, if one wants to to well on the GRE, one needs to bone up on the math they haven't studied in 12 years. *BLEAH*

I believe the expression is, math r0x0rs.

But then again, pass me your broccoli while you're at it. I like that too.

Bless your cute little accountant heart =)

But you cannot have my broccoli, man.

Just thinking about math makes my brain tired.

The GRE is why I will probably never ever go back to grad school, no matter how much I may want to. I know enough math to get me through the real world (I *can* balance my checkbook even if I *don't*) and that's all. Once was enough.

Well, I've reached a point where I don't think I have much choice. I used to teach GRE-prep, and the word there was that most programs, unless they are math, science or business centered don't much CARE about math scores on the test.

But I know I'll get all freaked out and possibly blow the rest of the test if I hit a wall of questions I don't know how to answer, so I'm studying the math to kep THAT from happening.

Beside, the perfectionist in me wants to do well on both parts, too.

I wish. It just doesn't make any sense to me at all. I start looking at it, and I get all confuzzled. Bleah.
