I did get a lot of that in the lower level math courses, where it kinda felt like the math faculty were grudgingly letting in the unwashed masses to learn some primitive skills to apply [spit] to their various fields, and didn't really give a shit if anybody understood anything as long as the morons could repeat some rituals for moving x around on the page. I didn't really understand integrals until the intermediate classical mechanics prof took an hour or two to explain what the hell we had been doing for three semesters of calculus.

But when I did go past the required courses and into math for math majors, things got a lot better. I just didn't find that out until I was about to graduate.
