    I was the opposite. Math was, if not easy, then simple. Every math problem has a specific set of steps you take to solve it, and a single objective answer. Unlike literature, there’s no room for differing opinions or interpretation. It meshed very nicely with my black-and-white worldview.

      Same here. Math was the one place I felt like things made sense. The subjectivity of arts and literature drove me crazy.
