Is this true: Math is the language of science?

i agree with that too. math is really the language of science because without math how could you understand science? talking about science it's not only about theory, calculations are also there especially in physics and chemistry and knowing that those two are a part of science, right?

I dont really like math or science but from what i've seen in The Big Bang theory and ive seen all the sessions 3-4 times id say yes math is the language of science its also calld nerdish or that is what they call it on the big bang theory how ever it also makes no sense that math is a language because Math is more like a puzzle so no i would not say that it is a language

Yeah, I've always said it like this "Science gives math a purpose." So many things that can be explained by a simple equation - or less than simple one, depending on how far along one is in school :).

I think math is universal. It predates all the sciences. I've heard before that physics is just applied math, that chemistry is applied physics, and that biology is just applied chemistry. This was from my anatomy and physiology professor I think. At Caltech, we have to take 5 terms of math and 5 terms of physics as part of our CORE curriculum, as opposed to 3 terms of chemistry and 1 term of biology. I can see how the math is useful, but the physics I don't understand how useful it is to me as a biologist. But we use differential equations in biology so I'm not opposed to taking that!

I dont think so because i know that i am good in science.Actually i rank on the top every time we have an exam in science but when it comes to math, I honestly tell you that i am very afraid of that subjects. I cant understand the numbers and letters. I nearly fail that subject. Thats why i dont think that if you are dull in math you are also dull in science. I beg to disagree!!
