Ugh! Excel

I cannot believe how stupid I feel when it came to working with Excel today in class. I think I have completely avoided using Excel, because I have an electronic grade book that does all the calculations for me. I guess I never saw the purpose of it. Then, if had I to use Excel, my husband would have to help me, but unlike me, he uses Excel every day, since is an engineer. But, now going through this class, I can see the importance of using it has an administration to manipulate data. I am learning, slowly, and begrudgently, but I am quite determined to get better!
