    Algebra was one of my toughest classes, it was a struggle for me and my teacher would just look at us dumbly if we asked questions, so anyways. I would’ve been so ecstatic if my family had made me a cake. Yay for her!! The cake looks great 🙂

    Good for her! It took me all of high school and four years of college to finally pass algebra. Can honestly say I’ve never used it once since. Hope she enjoyed the cake. A big old bite.

    Oof, your description hit me hard.

    I took Algebra 3 times at the college level before I got my A. F, D, A. Perseverance! Fun cake too!

    It took me 3x too. I feel her relief!

    I only posted this because she is taking Statistics as a 33 year old and got an A on her first mid term! Proud mom!

    I’m currently struggling with my college trigonometry homework. Opened reddit, saw this and my mood went up.

    failed alg 2 twice. Finished accelerated calc 2 this summer with an A-! I’m a stem major now too lol (25 f). it’s all about perspective, good luck to her in stats!

    My Algebra 2 teacher was actually fired after my junior year becuz he failed 73% of his students. I technically failed with a 69.4. They bumped me up becuz he was a wierdo.

    I didn’t care for school in general but algebra was my favorite class I ever took. I was obsessed. I literally wanted to buy a textbook and just do the equations for fun. Each their own of course, just wanted to share an opposing view since others seem to dislike it lol. And I think it’s sweet that you celebrated her passing the class and it’s awesome that she’s doing even better in math now

    Algebra was like trying to understand ancient Latin to me. I took seven years of French in high school and college so I wouldn’t have to take calculus or trig. I passed Geometry with a D- – Numbers are not how my brain works. Words, now, that’s where I shine.

    The hardest part about any advanced math course is the algebra
