Math is a subject that has the ability to make you forget to sleep. It has the most complex equations, the most difficult formulae, and the most complicated numbers. No matter how bad you are at science or language, the subject of math always required some extra effort, practice, and sleepless nights.

They are actually God's favorite beings, as they never have to go through the scolding of their parents for the subject of math.
Indeed, many people deny the importance of math in everyday life, but still, math is still considered one of the most important subjects in academics. Why do you think it is so?

Ever since man has learned to feed himself and others through the materials available, it has incorporated counting and measuring substances. One can never separate man from math.
Thus, whether you like the subject or not, you cannot stop math from scaring you just like it did back in school.
