Building Intuition for Math Problem Solving
Sorry I've been quiet on this thread but, narrowing down the area i want to really improve is translating the understanding i have of the problem into math. For example i can read a physics problem and i will understand what is happening in the problem conceptually but i can't translate my...- JoeTheKid

Building Intuition for Math Problem Solving
Hello brand new to the forums and I just have one question. So I decided to follow mechanical engineering as my degree of choice and I stand firm with my decision, I'm good at building things and finding unique solutions to problems, but the one thing I'm bad at is math... I'm a little above...- JoeTheKid
