Intermediate Algebra
Sorry for the rant but as a math lover this is terrible. In my experience &quot;algebra 2&quot; is taught for multiple years and is in my opinion the most boring soul crushing math I was taught. And I say taught because its forced into you with very few interesting observations and thinking. It focuses on memorizing formula&#x27;s a procedures, which while these things have there applications I don&#x27;t consider someone who can say y=mx+b or the a^2+b^2=c^2 knows much about math or more importantly engages with things in a mathematical way. I think there is this focus to produce calculators when you want thinkers and maybe and I hope this has changed in the last 10 years (age 24) but I feel like the American middle school level produces bad math habits and skills wrapped around solving test questions instead of thinking.
