If you can't pass a math/science class, stay out of college.

You'll make more in the trades than in any degree program that doesn't require multiple math and science courses.

I agree with the first statement. However, math is very important for trades such as carpentry, electrical and plumbing. Very useful for figuring out how many bags of concrete are needed, useful for figuring out how many of each type of boards to get for building a deck, fence or other project. Especially if you're working with complex angles. A couple mistakes here and there will cost you big in lost materials and time.

Geometry is very important as well.
