Why is it that people who excell in math hate or do poorly in reading, and vice versa?

I ask because I'm a bookworm, and (because I sleep in class) I get mostly B's in English. Whereas in Math, I recieve F's to C's....although right now I have an A....don't ask me how I managed to do that. I HATE MATH!!!!! It's too logical and in-your-face! What happened to the creativity people??? And this problem hasn't started in high school....Math just isn't my thing.

Why is it that people who excell in math hate or do poorly in reading, and vice versa?
different halves of the brain. verbal reasoning (%26amp; hence reading) is more about emotion, math is about logic. High school classes are not that demanding, so you can get good scores in both, but it is very rare for famous mathematicians to be famous writers (Lewis Carol is an exception tho :).
Reply:Um, that's not true. Last time I had a math class, I finished with a 99% and my last English composition grade was a 92%
Reply:There's no such thing. Whatever you practice on and have pride in is what you can do best. Being good at something is a matter of practice. Not natural born brain capabilities.
