Does anyone here get "mathematicians block?" (1 Viewer)

[t00l]

Hey guys. Similar to writers block, do you guys get mathematicians block when doing homework, study or even exam and then just stop and stare at the question. Even when you may know how to approach it, your mind just becomes numb? just wondering cos i hav it lol

Easiest way to get around it is to leave it and come back a bit later.

It's happened at least 4 times this year so far. Not during exams, thank God. The past few times I've done maths homework, I've just stared down at the question I was currently doing at that time, wondering how I could possibly be getting the answer wrong, or feeling perplexed as to how I'm meant to go about answering the question. When I get to that point, I just walk out of my room, and some watch TV or go to sleep.

this is why i wasn't allowed to do 4 unit maths and caused me to rant and drop 3 unit maths since 2 unit maths is too easy to stuff up, atleast for me it is

I've been having a combination of mathematician's block and writer's block at the same time....
