I saw one place in a post " And then satan said ' Let there be x in maths ' ... " greatest truth on earth xD Well I've knows like 1000+ guys in my life , never saw one who was even close to be interested in a book xD
Only smart people like maths over reading ! Reading is for imaginative ones and nothing is for everyone else xD
College is a trap I don't know how your brother managed to do it but those who are in second year of college and I know them, they're not that cheerful or gaming as they used to be
I prefer theory over mathematical stuff ... Boring reading > hard maths.
Duh, you're from Asia , easily topping the subjects is in your genes ! After two years it gets tough first two years are quite easy , in my case the first year is easy , next two years are going to be hell >.>
