This applies to me, except I’m an English major and had to cheat to pass high school math even with a full time tutor! I’m not intimidated by technical stuff though; when I get stuck I can usually find the answers by Googling. I did get pretty frustrated by how many times I had to try to simply get an account opened, and I still hate that I can’t see my password when I log in.
The ability to google effectively is actually a really underappreciated skill. You can get by or even excel in many careers on that alone.
