I'm not a math wiz, but I was quite good at trig. Calculus however, that's were it all went downhill. Bye bye computer science major.

Ugh, trig... I'll never be able to get SOH CAH TOA out of my head for as long as I live. >.<
Ha, I thought this too, but you'd be surprised.
In the modern workplace, at least in the UK, you need to keep your knowledge of maths and English up to date... if your qualifications in the two subjects were acquired longer than five years ago, then you have to do some refresher course rubbish to ensure that you've not forgotten the basics... stuff like spelling, punctuation, grammar, calculating percentages, Pythagoras (cos that totally has real-life application, "oh look, a triangle!"), BODMAS... stuff that I would have thought people never forget and that everyone learns, but in the event that you have forgotten/don't know/suck at their exams, they will shove you into a class to brush up. >.<
I took my GCSEs in 2003 (A* in English Language, B in Maths), and then was told I'd have to take an exam anyway even though I was insistent that there was no need; I'm not usually one for gloating, but getting 100% on both exams was something nice to rub in the faces of the JobCentre's pen-pushers. I would have thought going to university was evidence enough that I at least didn't need to take the English one. ¬_¬
