False dichotomy ,nor does correlation equal causation.
Although I can do reasonably complex arithmetic in my head, did not pass maths after year 9. For years I thought it was because I was just too stupid. I found out via a wonderful tutor at university it was only because of the way I was taught. Quite simply, the method which suits the majority does not suit everyone..
With an IQ of about 100, the interest and a good teacher,just about anyone can be taught maths to undergraduate level.
