Engineering Student Avoids Basic Algebra
8th grade math student basic algebra 3rd year engineering student laplace transform calculus basic algebra differential equations physics
The top panel shows an eighth-grade math student tripping over basic algebra, while the bottom panel shows a third-year engineering student navigating a staircase of physics, differential equations, Laplace transforms, calculus, and basic algebra. The joke is that advanced engineering mathematics feels manageable, but simple foundational algebra remains an unavoidable obstacle. It is used as a reaction to struggling with supposedly easy basics despite handling difficult subjects.
