The Answer to your question is NO, indeed this is a rumour and some one has been fooling with you. In fact maths is very much needed in engineering and used directly or indirectly in some or the other subject like Applied Physics, Electronic Devices and Circiuts, etc. So if you are good in maths you will bot fail engineering. And even if by bad luck you fail in any subject, then its not because you are good in maths, but because your efforts in that subject were not up to the mark.
The short answer is no. Physics, Chemistry and Engineering are nothing but applying math to the real world. So if you are good at math, you will likely do well. Writing becomes important with things like lab reports in school. In the real world, if you are going into one of these disciplines, writing may become important if you need to put together a technical document or wish to publish a paper on something that you are researching.
You'll need both math skills and writing skills. You should definitely practice writing essays. Not only will this help you in the short term, but you'll need writing skills later on for many different jobs.
They need to be very good at math and have a spatial ability to see what they design or make.
Basically, any university study is tough. In the case of engineering, you need to learn lots of math and science. However, being good an algebra is a good sign. Of course you'll need to learn quite a bit more than high-school algebra, but knowing this algebra is an important basis - you'll need it to study engineering. Also, it is an indication that you might be good at other, similar, subjects (i.e., more advanced math).
Accounting, Engineering(except computer engineering, software engineering and electrical engineering), Physics, Chemistry, etc
You need good math to do engineering at a professional level.
You'll certainly not fail physics BECAUSE you are good at math - you NEED math for physics and engineering.
no
On the contrary, you will need a lot of math to be good at science and engineering, so if you are good at math you have a good start, at least.
Math will help, not hinder, you in this. You actually need a LOT of math, especially for physics and engineering.
Huh? No of course not.
I'm good at Math and I passed Chemistry.
On the contrary, you NEED math, especially for physics and engineering.
-- No. You should not be ashamed of yourself. -- No. If you fail science and engineering, that won't be the reason.
No But Each One Is Good At One Or Another:)
Not really. Science Engineering deals basically with Math subjects. Therefore, if you're good in Math, you'll do good in Science Engineering.
no
