How the hell did I get into college?

I seriously wonder sometimes how I skated my way into college. The problem? I can't do math! I have an IQ of 152, my ACT scores were pretty high, but I can't do simple algebra (if such a thing exists). WTF?! I've been staring at this problem for 20 minutes: 7 - 2x = 15. Now I can tell you that X = -4, but I don't have a fucking clue how to solve it showing my work. Common sense should be part of showing your work. If I can solve it without a bunch of bullshit steps no one ever uses in real life, that should count as "showing work". Keep in mind my high school only offered the most remedial math and I've never even attempted algebra...but I figured it'd be a snap. I am so fucking screwed.
