Before the waterfall of people saying it's not that bad, for *me* it was too much, and I mention it because you said it wasn't a subject you were good at. For some people, that means they can limp along through calc, but for me that meant restarting a 46 year old brain learning something I didn't even do in high school - I'm not going to be successful taking college algebra, statistics, and accounting - it's just not happening. If I had more time, yes, but I had other fish to fry. I took a nice and easy Math for Liberal Arts through TESU directly (8th grade math with a little extra bling) and checked the box.

Just a quick note cookderosa - I didn't think Financial or Managerial accounting classes were very math-y at all. Financial especially was addition and subtraction stuff. Really simple. Managerial (And the Finance course) got more complicated with some formulas for figuring out bonds and whatnot, but I still wouldn't say that you had to be particularly good at math to understand the concepts or pass the courses. Just an FYI - I'm still struggling through Stats! :-P
