Why choose a UNISA course that does not require maths?

There are a number of reasons why you might choose to study a UNISA course that does not require maths. Here are a few:

• You may not be interested in maths. If you have never been interested in maths, or if you struggled with it in high school, there is no need to force yourself to study it at university. There are many successful careers that do not require any mathematical knowledge.
• You may have other strengths. Just because you are not good at maths does not mean that you are not intelligent or capable. You may have other strengths, such as good communication skills, creativity, or problem-solving skills. These skills can be just as valuable in the workplace as mathematical skills.
• You may want to avoid the stress of maths. Studying maths can be stressful for many students. If you are already feeling overwhelmed by the thought of university, you may want to choose a course that does not require maths. This will allow you to focus on your other subjects and reduce your stress levels.
