Also probably because math is a required subject pretty much all the time compared to the other subjects. For me, it's my strength so I stick to it. I can answer questions outside of math on this site, but it's a rare thing though.

English is generally a strong point too, however, so I'm confused as to why it wouldn't have as many viewers.

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

well given that MIT is a strong backer, it might have that math advantage for that reason

anonymous · Answer

Ah, I had no idea. This is my first night on this site, I found it through StumbleUpon.

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

oh and the fact that I found out about this site through another math site might explain it too

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

yeah check the home page you'll see MIT open courseware, NYU, etc. etc

anonymous · Answer

There aren't many active/frequent users for having so many sponsors.. ahah.

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

yeah I'm pretty sure they'll figure it out though

anonymous · Answer

I suspect the fact that in math it is quite straightforward to come up with a large number of questions that have straightforward right/wrong answers might have something to do with it....

jim_thompson5910 · Answer

also a lot of math is verifiable (either with a calculator or some program), so it's easier to check your answers compared to other subjects.
