Don't Kill your child with Maths Options

[madhusudhanp@yah...]

Maths should be made mandatory for engineering preferred students and not for students who go for other major fields like Arts, medicine etc. Were Math’s doesn’t play a major role. Elementary to high school the math’s for non-engineering stream students should have Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, Division, and basic accounts to lead a happy life from childhood to Adulthood. We need to get this in social engineering to build a good citizen without any advanced maths.

Calculus, Trigonometry, Geometry, theories and proofs never applied in other major fields after a high school.

When parents doesn’t have time to teach math’s, they have to hire tutors.

Many students have the phobia of Math’s. Due to which they go into depression and sometime
it lead's to suicidal tendencies.

Except Math’s, Most of the students do well in other subjects.

^^that's dry.

I think part of the reason why people are forced to take upper year maths in high school, is because high schools try to create more well rounded people, and also help you keep your doors open. Like JakeKKing, after deciding what you want to do in highschool, there might be some point along the road tha tyou decide that music, or art, or whatever isn't for you. If you took that math, you may still have another door open for you.

p.s. math isn't just graphing. You learn a lot of things in math that you take for granted, but if you didn't learn, later on you'd figure that you should have learned a little more math.
