Just Gets Worse

I do not understand why colleges make people take classes that are just not needed. I have been in college for 5 years now and should be graduated but I still have to take a math class. I am not sure why I have to take it if I have made it this far in life without needing it. I would have had it all completed but in Utah if you do not take a math class for more than one year then you have to retake the math placement test. What a waste of my time.
