i wouldn't say i took it... lol 

it was a requirement for computer science. i wasn't allowed to take C++ unless i passed calculus first. needless to say, i went into systems administration instead of engineering because of this stupid requirement. 

 Had to take 4 Calculus courses for my engineering degree.  Software being able to do it allowed me to instantly forget it all.  All it did was teach me how dumb I was in comparison to marhmaticians from 400 years ago. 

 I had to take first year because I was in medical science. My struggle with calculus and a very productive conversation with @rosie led me to switch majors lol. So I didn’t have to deal with calculus again. and it was ultimately the best decision. Thanks mom and dad 😍😍💜💜 

 Providing positive encouragement to explore "creativity" at pivotal times in someone's life can be rewarding on so many levels!!!
