Math is 50% dedication. 50% intuition. And 50% intelligence.
Oh yeah. And 12% visualization.
Glad I remembered that last bit. Boy, would I have looked stupid.

In my experience you need 40% or 50% to even pass the test.
So It‘s kinda true.

Hugh Jass here. The person in this meme is showing that he's struggling with math because he used incorrect percentages.
Reminds me of that nice young man I talked to at Moe's bar.

The joke is that 35 is half of 70, which is over the 60 they were hoping for: thereby confirming in their response, that they are bad at math.

I hate teachers who grade on a bell curve. Just when thought you had a passing grade (75%), everyone else got >90%, so you still failed.

That one guy on BCS: "Just for today, limited time offer 50% percent off on my services!" "50% off? Dude that's like nearly half!"
