Computer careers for the numerically-challenged

Posted by: Crunkadelic

Hey there. Im very interested in pursuing a career in computers (especially something in the IT field) and I understand that certain fields require mathematics. Now, dont get me wrong, Im good at adding, subtracting, dividing, multiplying, and all of the basic mathemathic stuff.

But its alot of the complex Alegebra/Geometry/Calculus problems that I freeze up on and struggle with.

I know that you will have to take complex math courses to earned degrees - that I can deal with - but using complex mathematics to acutally do the job is what I wanna avoid.

So for someone thats "numerically-challenged" like me, what kinda of computer careers would y'all recommend for me?

;)

Most IT jobs don't require you to do calculus. Unless you are writing programs to DO calculus. Network/system admin, database design, web design, etc. No math genius needed.

No math for IT. Well, you might need to know something, but you can rule calculus out.
