> The vast majority of people aren't going to use more than basic algebra and geometry Most high school students take nothing past algebra and geometry, so what specifically are you complaining about? As far as I can tell, most adults in the US working in a non-technical field do not understand very basic mathematical concepts like fractions, percentages, or negative numbers, and can’t really follow a line of logical reasoning. It’s definitely an indictment of mathematics education, but I can’t support the conclusion that students should spend less time learning mathematics. > repetitive and pointless, which was exactly how the rest of HS was to me at that point. So this wasn’t a complaint specific to math after all?
