Whether you’re studying Mathematics, Applied Statistics, or Actuarial Math we all pretty much have similar confessions when it comes to our major…

 

We love math!

And it loves us back, why wouldn’t it?

Shocker, we can do math in our heads

We can split the bill and include tip without having to pull out our phones!

We aren’t all geniuses

But yeah, we know we basically do Satan’s work and it’s really hard.

We feel bad for people who have to write papers

We’d way rather spend the night doing math problems…

We are REALLY into calculators

Ask us how many we have in our backpack. (Some of us even name them).

Our favorite movies have to do with math

21, Good Will Hunting, A Beautiful Mind… Who doesn’t love these movies though?!

We like doing Sudoku’s and/or Rubik’s cubes

Always have, always will!

Our math friends really get us

Our non-math friends just don’t understand what we go through quite like these guys.
