Have you ever felt like you were in a Twilight Zone?

I have this past week. In math class, we are doing these equations, and I'm doing every step perfectly, but the end answer is always wrong! I haven't gotten it right one time yet! I have a feeling I'm doing it right and everyone else has been doing it wrong for years. I did it all perfectly!

Almost every day of my life I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone! I believe so differently than most people, it's like I'm among aliens.

I know that feeling when you feel you are right and everyone else is wrong. It is quite odd. I used to have the same problem with math in school at times. If the steps are all correct and the answer is still wrong then there must be an error somewhere else. Check the equations and see if you have put a figure wrong something like that. Sometimes you can be too close to the problem to see the error.

Hi Sheepie, No good me saying anything about equations because I am useless at maths, you did get it right didn't you? Tamara

I get like that sometimes. LOL. You think you're doing it right and just can't figure out why it's not right. Have a good night and happy lotting.

I guess the problem lies in the concept. Just look where the concept orignates and the conditions that are assumed to be applicable on that formula. Stop mugging formulas and understand maths honey , else there can be chances that the formula or answer is printed wrong I can help if you can be more specific
