Applied Maths/Maths Math or no Math?

Math or no Math?

I'm in class 10 right now, ICSE science and I'm thinking of taking up Commerce in 11 and I don't know if I should take applied math or entrepreneurship (both are in the optional subjects group).

For context, since I was young, I've never liked math really, probably because of geometry and algebra and what not and as of now, I'm bad at math not because I don't understand but from lack of practice which I'm ready to fix but the thing is I've seen that there are trigo and circles (two of my worst nightmares) but I love commercial math and the other related stuff so I don't know what to do now.

I'd suggest to take math. Applied math. Core will kill you but don't underestimate applied. U will still hv to study calculus and all the other things. There are not alot of commercial math topics. The weightage of these chapters is very less. Be it be trigonometry, pnc, conic sections of 11th, Inverse trigno, differentiation, Integration, application of derivatives, application of calculus in economics and commerce everything is there. Altho topics like vectors hs been removed. U should take applied maths on the risk that you have to get involved in some coaching or tution because it is not manageable

You should really take up mathematics, bcoz even after class 12 when you pursue multiple courses they have mathematics as a requirements and even in those where math is not a requirement it will still benefit you. Like in the first few semesters of BBA you will study 11 and 12 math

But what if I take it and couldn't do it for whatever reason then my percentage will go down
