Are we comparing biologists to the general public or to mathematicians here? Cause to get a BS in Biology at many universities you need math up through diff eq at a minimum

Bruh, it's a joke

I have a two degrees in natural sciences myself and partially selected that route because it wasn't supposed to be math intensive.

Now I do fertilizer calculations and look at stats...

Any physical science is going to be math heavy. Hell, even for social sciences statistics is super important.

As a molecular biologist, I can confirm this meme is 100% accurate. If excel cant calculate it for me, I want nothing to do with it.

They pay me to be right; that's why they pay for my excel license
