      Nearly every day… but because it i have a reason to (like finding how thick i make a part so it doesn’t come apart) rather than just being in a textbook, i actually enjoy it and see the point! I think seeing the point in math is something you don’t get in school very much. trust me , it’ll be useful later!

    I use little bits of maths all the time – but it’s not actually very often I sit down and do a really big maths problem. Maths does help you understand why things happen though – so it’s really usefull!

    At school you do maths problems because someone told you to – but in engineering you do maths because you need the answer!
