Calculus is so, so much easier than algebra. It’s crazy we spend so much time on algebra which for most is both boring and nearly useless. We should cover algebra cursorily and then jump straight into calc and stats.

I’ll never be a math whiz and I’d’ve been far better off skipping anything beyond long division altogether, but I think if I hadn’t had to suffer through three years of useless algebra I would’ve done a lot better.
