I actually dropped my college algebra class and had to re-think my desire and pursuit of becomming a nurse. I just could NOT figure out algebra and cried week two, so I dropped! Will I ever "get it"? I don't know.....but, I just don't understand how so many other people do....

Hey there girl,

I just registered on this web-site and saw your posting. Hang in there! I took three levels of math after being out of school for years, and let me tell you. I had many nights where I would cry to my husband (at that time boyfriend) with each class. Be proud of yourself for making the effort of going back to school at this point. You are the older student like myself I totally know what you mean. What does not kill us makes us stronger. Good luck with the math class, and just know that it will all be over soon enough!

Ugh, I am soo frustrated. Here's my problem....I'm trying to enter the accelerated program at my school. So, I'm retaking college algebra to get a better grade (when I took alg for my undergrad, I got a C). Well, as u can guess, my math skills are a bit rusty. We started Chapter 2 this week, and bypassed all of the basic concepts of algebra (which I soooo desperately need!!) I guess I'm the minority in the class because I'm not right out of high school, and I don't remember the basic stuff. They don't really give us "older" people a chance to review anything. It's like, "Ok, they should know this stuff, so let's just start with graphing equations". It's very frustrating....so, right now I am going thru 2 chapters of basic concepts. Wow, I have alot to cover. Ugh, just needed to vent......
