Let's try an indirect approach: what in life interests you most, in school or out?

Sometimes, it takes a teacher to explain things in a fun way, or to do homework with friends. But, the biggest secret really is to understand what you're doing and then you'll really enjoy it more.

OK, can you narrow down types of books, and types of music, that interest you in specific ways? Ways that might lead to a career?
What I'm getting to is how math is part of virtually every career path.
Not every teen thinks in terms of what they want to do to make a living. They think in terms of applying for any kind of job they can get someday. Teens who have a real deep interest in a subject have a good chance of choosing their career because they learn all they can. Interest in music, if you can't sing, play, or compose, could lead behind the scenes on the equipment and sound. Or video and choreography. Any ideas for you?

You will need a lot of math for medical school. Keep that in mind as you study. Even if biology leads you to another profession, math will be a huge part.
I agree with teacherjenn that a good teacher means a lot. Math can be taught in a very boring way or an interesting way. Many of us had some pretty boring teachers, and didn't get interested until one teacher helped, or until we made the connection to an area of study we liked.

I love math because of how it applies to everything. I tend to think of things in math terms and compare things to math. Math was always my favorite. If you take math and look for it in everyday life you will find it easier to understand and it becomes more enjoyable.
Parabolas make me think of rockets and bouncing balls. Trig makes me think of waves and building stuff. Algebra gives me a chance to solve the little unknown numbers in everyday activities such as rates, change, tax, and that one side you can't actually measure.
Through math I have learned to love a challenge, to not give up on something just because it seems daunting.
Maybe my joy in math can help you find yours, good luck.
