If you don't or won't learn higher mathematics, here are the occupations you cannot work in:It is racist to require that a Black get 60% on a math test.
So, lets do away with math tests. Hell, better yet, no more racist math classes.
Structural Engineer: Anyone not good at higher mathematics would build a large structure that would be dangerous/unsafe to be in.
Mathematical and Physical Science in NASA or any other aerospace agency: You have to be able to use higher mathematics to calculate orbit trajectory and reentry. Think, "Hidden Figures."
Accountant: You have to be able to handle the financial books for companies.
Mechanical Engineer: They have to be able to design, build and test mechanical devices for tolerances.
Statistician: The title speaks for itself.
Aeronautical Engineer: Designs airplanes, helicopters and missiles.
Robotics Engineer: Designs, creates and tests various robotics.
Economist: They develop effective solutions for urgent economic problems, which can affect local, state, national and even global needs.
The list goes on, but the fact remains, it doesn't matter whether you live in Europe, Asia, or Africa, mathematics is necessary, depending upon what is needed and what you do. That is not to say that if you have an average job, that you need higher mathematics, just not the high paying occupations you might want.
