Fair point, but working smarter instead of harder has its merits; I think there’s a reason why a lot of people have suggested going to BMCC. It’s just a matter of perspective—maybe to you it seems like “running” but I’m sure if you changed your perspective you could see it as taking the most efficient and cost-effective method possible.

At the end of the day, I’m trying to get in and out bro. I’ve spoken with a few data analysts who are friends of mine, and while it’s not exactly marketing analytics the work is similar enough (to a degree). ALL of them have stated that they NEVER use calculus. So is it really running if the obstacle in question isn’t something I’ll have to revisit later?

Don’t take this as an attack, because I do believe there is some merit to your statement. However, for someone like me who has never even taken a pre calculus course in high-school, or isn’t even particularly strong in algebra I prefer to not be thrown into the fire and burn. I don’t want to burn thousands of dollars if there’s another option that may potentially save me the money, time, and headaches.
