Re:How should mathematics be taught to non-mathematicians? (... by ghaff on Saturday October 08, 2016 @11:41AM (#12667312)
I think you need to define your terms because I see at least a couple different classes of answers.

Speaking personally, a lot of people would probably say that I'm "good at math" in the sense that I got through a fairly rigorous engineering program and that I've never had issues with the quantitative side of business or other such pursuits. On the other hand, I've never personally considered myself a "mathematician" in the sense that anything approaching upper-level university math was something that came remotely naturally.
