In my high school experience, most classes could be aced through rote regurgitation of facts.
Math class required another step - identification of which category of problem you have, and rote application of one of a few pre-calc/calc algorithms.

- sitharus 3y agoThat was my experience as well, and totally ruined my first year at university. The lecturers expected I'd been taught application and derivation of proofs, but in reality I'd only been taught the proofs required to pass the high school exams.
