you have to have a grain of sense about you. If you have dedication and the ability to solve problems, then you should be able to work it out. The maths stuff won''t get easier.. there gets to be a bit more of it, so if you can''t be bothered with maths, concentrate on an area of programming that doesn''t involve so much of it..

If things seem bad, think that they can get a whole load worse, and they don''t seem so bad anymore

You have to be really smart to program really well.

Buy a programming book, and teach yourself.

And, if you want to be succesfull in math, try to learn how to be a person that can learn math from a book. It''s not easy, but it gets easier...

I''ve always thought about a "relative" word (at least from what I''ve seen so far in high school) To do well on tests, you don''t need to be "smart", you just need to have a good memory That being said though, I think you do need to be "smart" for programming, and definetly be able to think logically through problems. Oh, almost forgot... PATIENCE too... grrr, lol

having a good memory is part of it.. BUT you MUST learn math. u can''t study math.. when a lot of people tell me. Hey i need to study for my math test. I keep asking myself why these people need to study it.. math is just like you learn to walk,dress and etc.

If you see life as math, then, poor you.
