I’m a professional theoretical physicist in my 40s and I never thought the day would come that I would realize I became shit at mental math. I can do quantum physics in my head but don’t ask me to add 17 to 34
- steve-atx-7600 9d agoThanks for mentioning this. It makes me feel better about stumbling with metal math in front of some colleagues that are faster.

I missed one question, only; many of my brothers scored 750+).
