Exactly. It never made sense to me. I can easily fix a car's brake system, because i know how it works overall and what each parts is supposed to do so it is obvious to me how to put things together or fix problems. My experience with math was always put X here because the book said to, divide there because that just what you have to do. I never understood the larger picture or what the individual rules were supposed to do so every math problem seemed equally unique and foreign. I still hate math, but wish I could "get it."
