My dd did not even take Algebra in high school. All practical maths and she has done just fine without the higher ones. At age 19 was made a manager at her place of employment and involves having to use math for sure - ordering and balancing the cash "drawer" when she closes . She is also stellar at her personal banking.

That basic math sounds very wise and wanted to add that mine did fine with science . Tho not a big science person either she found it interesting . We did not do a super high level of chemistry. She learned the basic elements and while she was doing chemistry I would find interesting chemistry facts and trivia and print them out and she enjoyed those. She has to be able to relate math to life. Hope this encourages you! besides the management job at a gourmet deli, she is a gifted photographer and videographer and gets paid very well for that. Would help dd to know and pursue her gifts and passions
