Did you hate your Geometry in High School?

Some students loved it, they even found it enjoyable. But a lot of them hated it. They didn't like familiarizing theorems and postulates, figure analyzing and proving mathematical statements.
Just like one group activity given (shown in the photo). Some groups enjoyed it and answered fast while this group found it really hard to answer. It was nosebleed for them. Can you count how many?

I love my Geometry in my high school, where I can get the full credits for my drawing. We just take the measurements and we get our diagrams completed.....
I am so sorry for this discussion arun. I failed to upload the photo that should be shown in this discussion. I made another with a photo. You can respond there, too. I appreciate your response here though.

I love geometry while I was in school and that was my favorite subject and I used to be the topper in that. Its really nice to draw them and to use calculation to get them to a proper form.

I enjoyed it as long as I was regular to class. Then started all the activities in school, and we would be called out during lessons. I realised that once you don't get a continuity in understanding your lessons, then poof it goes. Thats exactly what happened to me. I had to cram hard to pass. I did score well enough, but not the way that I would have wanted it to go.

Nope Joyce I didn't hate geometry. In fact I thought is was easy. analyzing and proving turned out to be useless for me but the geometric formulas, area circumference and angles is part of my job. I estimate stucco and sheet rock from blue prints and really need those! I agree that it was love or hate it subject.
