Personally, I always found Excel to be horribly frustrating and complicated. This has changed somewhat since we have been working with Excel in class, and I would have to say that my understanding of the program has increased substantially. Dealing with spreadsheets is far less daunting of a task for me now, and I have learned much about applying formulas as well as creating aesthetically pleasing documents.
My new understanding of Excel's capabilities could definitely help me later in life if I plan on going into the the field of political science where I would have to be able to work with large data sets for research purposes. Excel is very useful for sifting through data and finding statistical significance. Pretty much everyone could find practical applications for this program in their professional or business lives, whether keeping track of a personal budget or working as a in the financial sector.
