lol, only 2 more years after this (then college, which according to some is much, much worse)School teaches you nothing. It is organized slavelabor meant to bore you and make you a part of a system. Be a free thinker and not a brainwashed individual. Your best achievements come through self teaching, listen not to what the slavedrivers will tell you. Believe what you know.
i dunno, from what i've done so far (i've made battleship, a pacman style game, and im working on a text-based rpg) math isn't too important (or maybe its still important, but it seems more fun when its part of a game )
i guess i don't like math because you do 20ish problems and don't accomplish anything, much less care about the 20 problems
to me, database non-game programming is the same, just boring stuff
just my personal opinions
