There are some classes that even with tutoring I couldn't get it...chemistry was one of those back in high school. Everything else I am usually quite capable of figuring out myself....& now at the age of 60...some things I look back on & wonder what the problem was as so much seems easier to learn & understand now.

Dealing with the electrical system on my lawn tractor a few weeks ago & trying to learn how to use my mulitmeter in the different situations it was needed for testing was a challenge & I hate learning curves but it seems so much easier to learn & self tutor at this age. I have learned where to ask the questions I need answered & where to go to get the answers sometimes by trial & error....

The one thing I realize is that there are also some things that no matter how much I try to learn & ask I will just not grasp . If that were happening in my major in college I would question myself about my major & just how important the class was going to be in the career & then possibly change majors to something my mind could handle.

Calculus was that problem for me...I never did grasp it no matter how hard I tried or what tutoring I had. I honestly never used it in my career but it ended up limiting my career when the only department with a design position it it was one that programmed ballistics for the project....I didn't take the position because there was no way I could have performed up to the required standards. Sometimes we have to accept our limitations as they truly exist
