Yeah, but my level of mechanical and electrical engineering rarely involve mathematics above simple equations.
I wish I was much more proficient in calculus and I wish my equation manipulation skills were better.
(as in, seeing an equation and totally flipping it around in my head, without going through all the steps on paper)

I feel the exact opposite, as if I have enough intelligence to excel in any of those I just don't have the interest.

How the hell does being Indian automatically make me good at maths(yes maths with an 's') and science?

It appears that it is too late to help u. You have shamed and dishonored your family. Good luck in life with that liberal arts degree yaar

Well that sounds like a rascist remark if I've ever seen one. So we must assume that ALL people from India are good in math/science?

Yeah, I think this sometimes. I'm just smart enough to realize how stupid I actually am. That said, maybe you don't have to be a genius to do meaningful things...maybe you just have to try hard.

Most of the time I think my problem is I'm just lazy.

First paragraph is true and I fixed the second.

Yes. I'd love to be a math whiz...but I are math stoopid.
Basic math, addition, subtraction, etc. I do fine...but once you put letters and squiggly lines in the problem...it becomes fuzzy math and my brain just turns off.

I think you mean stereotypical, not racist.
