    Well, I'm in that "luck" that I'm not a logical thinker and I'm on a mathematical based school where math, chemistry and science are major subjects and I just feel lost in them. What could I do to train my logic thinking or should I take another school? Science and astronomy is something I like but I'm not an oral (language) person so I don't want to take such an education (In denmark, you have to take 2 other languages besides english and danish + another every year, which is something I HATE) I just don't understand most of the math these days but we've only been in school for 3 months and I really feel .. lost. Help.

    maybe it's the teacher, maybe it's the books. Is it only math or also chemistry? What level are you? (highschool?) else drop by the chat, I'm not having problems with A level math, maybe I could help you out :)

    Here's a link for quick reference to look stuff I don't immediately understand. Sometimes it helps looking at from another point of view than that of the book.

    It's HTX, 1g so I guess Math is around level b and chemistry C and such. But it's just the logical thinking. Sometimes I just can't see a way through an assignment but when I see at someone else it all makes sense.

    I would suggest figuring stuff out for yourself, take up chess, put furniture together without the manual or play some of those logic trainer games. Anything that requires you to figure out what B is from A is helpful.

    ever had problems in math before?

    I'm redoing my math (though at a faster pace) since there's some elements I didn't understand. Now that I see it a second time, it helps a lot.
    If you have had some problems understanding some of the stuff in ground school, you could probaby look it up and then understand it.

    math is often orderly structured. If there's a thing that you don't quite understand, the things put on top might seem odd and unlogic too.
