Taking the second semester of real analysis and I got a D- on our midterm exam.

I am an EE major who picked up math as a second major last year. I did ok in discrete math but I got a D and D+ in Real Analysis I and Abstract Algebra I.

Before picking up math, my GPA was a 3.7. I don't think I'm going to be able to graduate with a GPA above a 3.0 if I keep the math major. :-(

Don't make the same mistake I made. Just because you're good at applied math, it doesn't mean you will be good at majoring in pure math.

Does the class use Rudin?

a friend of mine double majored in computer engineering and math.
he graduated with a 4.0.
you're a brainlet.

Rudin's text is recommended but not required. our lectures are solely based on the professor's notes

>a friend of mine double majored in computer engineering and math.
so he basically majored in just math since majoring in computer engineering is nothing

If you get a D+ you're crowned king of the brainlets.

Mad respect though bro, I'm in EE but I am nowhere near confident enough to declare a math major. I'd rather try finish with a 4.0 and be king of the brainlets

you should honestly give up now and accept you will just be a burger flipper for the remainder of your life.

Most people get fucked when they take analysis, you just have to work harder, do as many problems from the book as you can, DO NOT LOOK UP SOLUTIONS, and don't be discouraged if its hard for you. I double majored in EE and Math, and for me Real analysis was tougher than every single EE course combined (Especially since in my program they babied the EE's when it came to math stuff, you could bring formula sheets, transform tables, etc. to exams, and we never touched ODE's except in signal processing courses where that shit is required, but even then we just laplace transform or fourier transform everything)

You're fucking retarded. Discrete math is where you learn the basics of proofs. All math majors have to take it.
