    Hard to say....!!!!

    I never really struggled at anything consistently especially if I stayed on top of things and actually studied.

    I would say.........Spanish.

    I probably took Spanish twice in middle school, twice in high school, and three times in college and all I can say is.

    Donde estas? De Nada? Que Pasa? A few colors, days or the week (lunes, martes, miercoles, jueves, viernes, sab., domingo), a few foods (jamon, leche, huevos, bistec......directions (izquerda and derecho). and few more odd words like odio (a) o bonito (a0, oro o plana....maybe couple of verbs that's it.

    Language are best learned by experience or if you are younger...it might have been a little easier.

    I used to try to say Math was my worst subject, but with discipline and good teacher....I usually do pretty well at it. Bad teacher in math, you're screwed.

    Same goes for science...

    Social Studies/Government/History/Economics/Civics came rather easily because you see it everyday....

    Anything and everything until I discovered Adderall later towards my college career. The pill made me a damn genius.

    Depending on what kind of math! I am not good in the more obscure higher math. one class I took was all various matrix manipulations of differntail equations. I am also not good at some electric engineering classes.

    I've been doing practice questions a lot lately. It's just hard for me to remember all of the steps. I don't have a memory for math.

    That is exactly how I am. I still haven't figured it out.

    Graduate Management Admission Test, an exam for graduate schools, just like SATs for colleges.

    GMAT math should be easy, it is just basic math. Get a help manual and work those problems for like one test a day!

    What kind of schools are you looking at and what kind of score do you want to achieve?

    Like conquistador#11 said, it's because I have boobs.

    UH or Rice because I want to stay with my company. They're great to work for. I also want to go to FIU in Miami (they have the joint degree program that I want) but that all boils down to money since its expensive there and the job market is shrinking. I'm just looking to get a score over 500, whatever gets me in the grad school!

    Calculus in college destroyed my will to live. Thankfully it was college, so chemicals helped...

    Oh 500 is piece of cake! I was thinking you wanted 700+ or something. When I took the thing a while back I got 690 (never did go to MBA though). Seriously, you don't need perfect to get over 500. Relax, just do well on verbal and analytical part and score half decent on math should get you over 600.
