If you're referring to "Einstein failed math at school" that's a myth. Here's an article that apparently has Einstein's own response. Here's something with his grades. If you mean he needed some help with higher order tensors then sure...
Cool to see the certificate! I did mean relatively speaking, he presumably wouldn't have gotten into physics at Zurich otherwise, but may have exaggerated the point for the sake of encouragement
It's perfectly plausible to be a better natural scientist than mathematician.Sorry, I didn't mean to (only) stray from your point. Wanted to add my own take but kind of just forgot... I guess part of the reason was I couldn't settle on how specific I wanted to be... Anyway, I've definitely known plenty of people personally who either couldn't get into university initially (had to do an extra programme), failed core papers (including first-year and math), or had to spend extra years on their degree (people at all degree levels) and went on to have rewarding (financially and otherwise) careers, including in academia.
To be honest I can relate to that very much. It is similar in my case but there are some differences. I will also have a very difficult math related exam. I am already studying for it like an idiot. My grades so far are quite good. But I have issues with math. So far I had no math exam. I have very much OCD concerning studying and very good grades.
functions derivative integral etc. i will also need geometry. it's really hard and tbh i dont think i can make it... i wil still try tho
That seems fine. I'm sure no one here or anywhere wants to see you in a situation where you feel you have no other choice. If you're otherwise not getting help with this I'm happy to help you to the extent I can, like if there are concepts that need to be broken down so you understand them or problems you need to be walked through. You can post here or PM or chat me. But ultimately I think someone who has a better idea of what exactly you need to know and who can work closer with you will probably be better.
Not entirely sure what level this is at but I might be able to help as well. Even if you just need someone to chat with about the theory, sometimes that can help, sometimes that's all you need to "get" it (though, doing it in an exam remains kind of a separate problem).
I feel like this has to be common knowledge by now, but fyi there exist online solvers for a bunch of problems that can be handy to check your work or sometimes can help better understand what's going on. Ones I've used that come to mind are this derivative calc, this integral calc, and Wolfram Alpha for general things, although it can be somewhat of a pain in the ass to properly input the problem / it might take some getting used to. There are definitely others as well and don't take them as gospel.
Check out this MIT course. Most MIT courses I've taken so far were very practically oriented and they're helpful for developing intuition. You can always supplement with a proof-based textbook to cover the theoretical side as well.
That will always be your decision to make. All I can tell you is make sure whatever you do is right for you.
@ineverlived , I don't think you should use "math" as a thing to represent the entire world. You can get past the challenging type of math and go on to live the rest of your life with occasional algebra usage, if that. I would suggest getting some in person tutoring and help with test preparation as the easiest way through. Would that be possible?
