Science.... Math is lame !

I always hated math in school, however science is a lot more dynamic!!

I'm terrible at math, I think because I find it so boring... at least science is interesting.

Side: Science

I always get low grades in maths!!! but that's my problem not the fault of subject...

This is hard. Because you really can't have Science without Math but you can have math without science. But if you don't have science for the math, the math is kind of useless.

I like Science more though so I'm going to go with science. :3

I dont want to criticise this debate but math and science are inseparable, math is the language of science, its a bit like saying which is better Inida or the Hindhi language, it makes no sense.

Science...engineers are lame and they use math!

Engineering is the application of scientific and mathematical principles to artifice. In addition to resolving the forces acting upon, say, a bridge, an engineer must also compensate for the resonance that bridge will experience when the wind vibrates at a certain frequency.

You can't do physics without mathematics.

Both are of equal importance. math underlies many scientific studies, and scientific principles are extremely important in societal development. In addition, science and math are both important in the engineering fields.

Math is the language used to communicate Science. The Science is still there, with or without Math, the question is whether it can be understood or communicated. Math, on the other hand, is a construct used to convey Scientific understanding. Without Science, Math would be useless. That is why the Nobel Prize is not offered for Math, although it is for various Scientific and Economic realms.

Moreover, the majority of the most famous Mathematicians were, in fact, Scientists. Math was created by Scientists to explain Science.

I am terrible with math. I loved science when I was in high school. At least I passed it, math...barely passed.

i hate maths. in my opinion, you learn enough maths in school upuntil year 8. after that, you basically learn pointless shit that, lets face it, you would NEVER need to know in real life. science, however teaches you about LIFE.

We use math in our day to day living and it will be so ungrateful for us to say "you basically learn pointless shit that, lets face it, you would NEVER need to know in real life". However you indirectly saying science is better than Math well think again, no subject or course is inferior than any other course for they all give us information that is prerequisite to our survival, in addition they are related to one another

science. seriously.. it teaches you about actual life not just pointless strategies (algebra for one, i mean seriously, who is going to use that in their life?!?!?

HA HA u use math every day and while i like science way more then math math is used way more often then sci. is even if ur teacher says that every time you take a step your testing gravity it's still not as important

Science is better beacuse when are you ever going to use math to help humanity. Math is usless,your never use it in life.

You can have as many theories as you want, but if you have no data and mathematical relationships to draw from that data and apply to the real world scientific theories are useless.

Math is usless,your never use it in life.

1- "Come on, we only got five minutes 'till four o' clock!"

2- "We will need three more eggs for this puding..."

3- "The movie will start in half an hour."

4- "I have only one car now since I sold that old piece of junk."

5- "I still have a quarter of the gas tank. I'll keep driving for now."

6- "Can you borrow me 10 bucks? I only have 50 and it's not enough..."

7- "My filmings occupy 3 GBs, so a 4GB DVD is enough to store them."

8- "I have eaten eight cans of tuna that's why I'm indisposed."

9- "This book is 750 pages long... I already read half of it!"

10- "I got two pajamas and three pairs of socks this christmans... this sucks!"

And btw, something kids never remember, video games use math A LOT.

Science is better beacuse when are you ever going to use math to help humanity.

Here I won't give you examples, I'll rather say just one thing: Without math you wouldn't have certain fields of knowledge (sciences) that allowed the finding of most of the things we have all around. Among these things, there's medicines and cures for certain deseases, transportations, flying devices, ships, weather forecasts, and many more. Without these the hungry people, for example, wouldn't be able to receive food as easily as they do. Without these and many others, we wouldn't be able to predict tornadoes and tsunamis, and certain other catastrophes. I think I don't need to say more.

Math is the language of science.

Just wait in till your using derivatives, matrices and Laplace transforms in a college physics class.

science is of course better then mathematics.......no doubt........!

we r living , walking , talking , working, this is all the magic of science ....nt only this bt we r all surrounded wid science gadgets only......... it is all interesting if go deep into it....... and on comparing wid maths its better becoz its all practical based and very much intersting.......

Please sir, please i beg of you, put some effort into your grammar, it's quite painful to read, it's like a 12 year old girl's texting. I think you should know that we would still be subsistence farmers without any technology and dying before we reached 30 if it weren't for math. You need math to experiment with science and develop scientific theories. We would know nothing about science if we did not understand math, sure science is more interesting but it wouldn't exist if we could not use math to discover science.

first of all im not sir, im mam

well sorry if u didn't get me........becoz of my chating language.............

ya u r right but bio doesnt need any mathematical theory.......

every thing has its own importance........where maths is solving Scientific problems but it doesnt mean that science is fully based on maths.......

we r living, its a scientific truth .........

and if u r saying maths is the origin for science ,so u cant say this so confidently........

That's how kids are going these days... kinda lame in my honest opinion... I can understand typing like that in a cell phone message, but in posts on forums and debates, I really can't. There's no excuse for not loosing one more minute to make things clearer. But kids want 1337 stuff and they think it's c00l. Then they wander why people ignore them... or something similar...

meh... whatever...

Without science, math would be a good mind exercise but it is meaningful when applied.

Im an expert at math, but science is linked with math so I am not sure which to vote,but I would personally say Science.

Side: Both

I would have to say math just because it is a basis for science. You can have math without science but you can't have science 100% without math.

Side: Math

I totally agree with you. Scientific equations are generally mathematical equations. We wouldn't have computers if it weren’t for math since their computations operate off of binary code, a series of ones and zeros. A measurement of any sort is based in math. I love both math and science, but math can exist on its own and science depends on math for the most part.

i totally accept with you......... maths is world!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Side: Math

If a rocket at rest expels... something cubic (what's that?) metres of gas at... something kilometres (how far is that?) per hour (how long is that?), using Newton's... Newton's... law that comes after the other laws, determine the acceleration applied to the rocket.

Use the formula (the what?) F... is somehow related to m and a.

See what I'm getting at here?

Without math science would be very difficult and hard to understand. Plus with out math we wouldn't be able to help the world through science!

you need to have math to be able to do science. How does physics work? Maths.

Side: Math

Math is really just a basis, and it is much more definite. Although scientists discover new things, they are essentially using math to do it.

Maths is one of the basic building blocks of Knowledge whereas science is more advanced.

This debate is like asking, whats more important words or letters?

Well I would choose science because it's more fun, but you need math way more than science.

Side: Math

I would say math because you will use more of it in life then science. Science is interest at some points also don't get me wrong.

of course, math! just imagine how sciences (all the sciences!) could be developed without mathematics! everything is connected with math, sometimes we even do not notice it, and it is another proof of the fact that mathematics is already a part of our life, our simple life, so should we consider sciences?! ;)

Side: Math

I agree with everyone who said you need math to have science. Math pretty much runs the world (not girls, as Beyoncé would say). Plus, it's my favorite subject.

I think all the arguments are based on how good we are at a particular subject, those who are against math, did not love math since school and so on... but if we think about it in general, math is always the best!!!

The term science can have a wide meaning. Mathematic is a science that studies numbers and the relashionship betweem them, and the relashionship that numbers have with everything in existence.

If you have math you have science, conversely any scientific study will most likely need math. So, math is neither more nor less important, but rather implied.
