>Do you have to be a genius to be succesful in mathematics?
Define this success of yours or the question about how smart one needs to be is impossible to answer.
>MAT157 won't have the introduction to logic and proofs part at the beginning. You'll be expected to pick that up on your own, which I think is a reasonable expectation for people in that class
Proofs may seem scary at first, but it's actually pretty easy to get used to them by starting with something easy and imitating the proofs you see in your course material. It's not like they will make you prove anything big at first anyway.
>I'm kind of intimidated.
Now is not the time for fear. That comes later.
