Well it is the University.. if you don't fancy smoking cigarettes with those long holding things and zipping red wine as if you know anything about them and claim it to be great even though coke tastes better to you, hey, go study in Polytechnics or something. University is supposed to be 80% useless scientific mongering that has very little real life applications. And it's great. It's a test. If you can't recognize the 20% and truly know that stuff inisde out, it weeds the bad seed out. That's right I said it. Bad seed out, it's intellectuals way to form the group of elite, because what it REALLY means is, that if you ONLY handle the 20% that actually is important, you're only normal high educated loser. If you handle the rest of the 80%, or say even 70%, making a total of 90% handling, it means you're elite and you can use that useless information to baffle your debating opponents and make YOUR point the BETTER one, even though it would have very little to do with reality, you compensate that with the lack of real life experience, that other losers have. You play mind tricks on them and win. You win even if you are wrong. And what is that called? That is called POWER. And if you, on top of that, have some charisma, you're natural leader and you're a winner like me. If you fail on any of these points.. go back t oyour cardbox home loser.

Complex mathematics has obvious uses is quantum, high energy, large-size and generally precise physics. As well as the numerous fields where analysis is required.
But more importantly, it is a study of logic, of reasoning, concepts etc, not merely for their own ends. We can reduce this to the old argument that education is only to make you into a better worker, must only be pragmatic etc, and if that's what you believe then you're not going to understand why mathematics, theoretical sciences, arts, languages and humanities are important.
