Some things just aren't taught. I took calculus in high school and 3 more semesters in college. At the end, I didn't have a clue as to what it was used for. It was all theory with absolutely zero application. It was years later when I found out what it was used for.
Math was theoretical and a mystery to me until HS Physics. Then it all made sense and I ended up learning well more math than I ever needed in college and enjoyed it. It is a use or lose skill. I had to review a paper for an employee last year with some pretty in-depth crypto-math and had to refresh my own skills to be able to make sense of it.
