I worked as a mechanic for 30 plus years and hardly ever had to use math. Math wasn't my favorite subject either. There are two different types of mechanics. I was in fleet maintenance which I prefer. The other are dealer mechanics. With dealer mechanics you have to keep up with your dealer's testing in order to be certified. Technology is changing so fast today it's unreal and no fun. I've also found out now in my mid 50's it's hard to adjust your glasses to see what you're working on especially when doing under the dash work on vehicles. I have recently been lucky to land a plant maintenance job which I like much better. I love electricity and understand it the best. I have a son too that's going to be a senior in highschool next year. He great at wiring up things on his car but he says he's not any good at electrical, but he just don't know he is. One thing about electricity, it never changes like things do in the mechanic trade. Any job will have some math in it, but you'll do the same equations over and over that it will be easy for him. This is just my two cents worth. I'm sure your boy will do very well.
