I know (very, very slightly) a guy who is a vet that had trouble with math in college.  Becoming a vet is actually harder than becoming a doctor and they require you to take calculus.  In the end, he passed math by memorizing all the formulas.  Memory "tricks" or mnemonics can be very powerful ways to get through even the toughest subjects.
