Actually, comp sci and applied math, close.

>>2393366
lol how'd you guess

figured I'd take something fun for once

>>2393346

I don't know if I believe this.

That's a little much.

>>2393354

because I am awesome

>>2393360
Aerospace Engineering, so a bit too wide.

>>2393376

yeah, it couldn't really have been anymore more obvious.

Mine's pretty obvious but this is not a typical semester for me.

>>2393327

>>2393390
I thought Combinatorics was boring. Algebra was fun though.

Convexity
Math Seminar
Complex Analysis applied to Fluids

>>2393394
correct. I'd guess you're in philosophy. I don't think comp sci because then you'd have the java 101 class under your belt well before going into recursion theory.
Also philo is the only thing that weds poly sci, psych, and comp sci in my mind.

>>2393398
the algebra prof is giving us a mini-quiz every day. You just have to regurgitate a theorem with proof, but I hate memorizing things and my set theory is so damn rusty that's what it comes down to.
I understand the course better now that I'm past the set-theory review week.
It's just a lot of work for a stinking required math minor.
Also, we have to demonstrate problems on the board before the class in alphabetical order.
Public speaking? Fuuuuuck thaaaat.

Intro to anthropology
English Composition I

>>2393416
Some kind of engineering?

Calc I

>>2393419
Understandable.

I like how you explained your thought process in determining how you guessed my major. I took java 101 last semester. I am taking psychology for fun, and foreign policy for a general education requirement. I am really a mathematics major with an interest in theoretical computer science. I've taken Set Theory and once you get the hang of it, it isn't so hard. You can read mathematical symbols like reading words out of a book once you get used to it.

Algebra can be a fun class, but it is difficult. How do you like Combinatorics?

>>2393443

I want to go to grad school for math logic. have any recommendations?

Spring semester? Nothing.

herpderp I'm an idiot and I've fucked around for two years, hence the reason I am taking all generals. Bet you can't guess what I would like to major in, though- due to my (previous?) lack of mathematical skill, it would be very difficult, expensive, and time consuming.

You're majoring in mathematics.

I think this because I also fucked around for two years after high school and plan on majoring in either mathematics or physics. As a result of fucking around I'm supposed to be in intermediate algebra right now. Therefore, you = me.

However, I'm going to CLEP out of college algebra instead of taking intermediate + college algebraa

Political Science

How does the educational system work in the States? I'm aware you have elementary from The Simpsons, then gradeschool and highschool. Which more or less equate to primary and secondary education along with 6th form/college over across the pond.

Then you call university college? And these majors, how long does one last? What do you get at the end of it? A degree? Do degrees even exist in the States? Don't you go to university/college with a specific course in mind? Such as pharmacology or history of art and just do that? If so why do I keep hearing about 'physics for idiots' or premeds sucking at maths? What is the point of the major? On the subject of premeds, what the fuck are they and what do they do? They're not medical students, right?

Ugh, I'm confused by this.

Yo dawg! I heard you like Turing machines, so we made a Turning machine that decides yo Turing machine! That way when you decide you can't decide and when you can't decide then you can decide!

>>2395825

i'm not knocking it man, its definitely more marketable than a liberal arts degree.

I wouldn't really count it as "engineering" since it seems like it doesn't use that advanced of mathematics.

>>2395809
Something like this, but I'm sure you can read Wikipedia about it.

Pre-Kindergarten (optional)
Kindergarten (optional AFAIK)

Elementary School - 1st-5th/6th grade
Middle School - 6th-8th grade
Junior High - 7th-8th grade
High School - 9th-12th grade

College - generally after high school, but you can still take classes at any age as long as you meet the educational requirements I suppose
University - same thing as college, except there are more educational programs, sports teams, dorms, and classes
Technical School - like college/university but more focused

Graduate School - after getting a 3-5 year bachelors AFAIK, this is where you get a masters, PhD, MD, JD, and whatever else doctorates there are

Right I see, more or less.

The wiki articles nearly broke me, I'm in no state to be reading them.

You're 18+ though, at the start of college, right?

Something more smaller and local would be a college whereas the ivy leagues would be considered universities? Different names to describe similar thing?

>>2395901
>You're 18+ though, at the start of college, right?

Generally that's the case, but there are high school students that take some classes, even the more advanced ones, so long as they meet the requirements of that class and whatever the college requirements for underage students would be.

.Something more smaller and local would be a college whereas the ivy leagues would be considered universities? Different names to describe similar thing?

Colleges generally hand out certificates and 2 year degrees. Some will have 4 year degree programs like nursing, however.

Ivy League schools are indeed universities. The size of a school doesn't mean it's a university or college, but what degrees they offer AFAIK. A university offers 4 year (bachelor degrees).

I'm in my second year in honours econ. So two years left and i'm using the break to get ahead of the class, even more. I don't have any connections to get into an internship, and I do plan on going to grad school immediately after I get my BA.

Seems just like some more classes, but these 4 math classes will make future courses in econ a looooooooooooot easier. I find the biggest challenge with the honours econ route is that it requires more advanced math skills, but you have to take so many econ courses that you don't have enough room to do the math courses, so my guess is that you're gonna be best off by doing the pure math classes that econ uses during the summer. I mean Int calc 2, Stats 1+2, and LA 2, done early will make everything in the future soooooo much easier, grad school and everything.

I actually think that by taking these courses I should be able to troll the shit out of mathematical economics and econometrics with ease.

Beginning algrebra, bio lab, biology, introduction to DC circuits.

I fucked around in highschool and didnt get passed geometry. Senior year i took Orchestra, jazz band, art, and english. If i actually try at math will i get it?

>I fucked around in highschool and didnt get passed geometry. Senior year i took Orchestra, jazz band, art, and english. If i actually try at math will i get it?

Yeah, I was in a similar position. I started out college in elementary algebra (the second lowest level math class) and I made it, despite it being a rough ride. Math really isn't that difficult, it just takes time like all other things.

>>2396452

The program I am in is intended to get me into grad school immediately.

Read my other post about why I am taking these courses. It's like 4 above yours.

Yeah, econ degrees don't FORMALLY require a lot of mathematical prerequisites, but oh goodness gracious the math gets intense, quick. It's actually a big troll scheme. By not going out of your way to take higher math courses on your own, expect to be in tears when you take higher level econ courses.

That said, a PhD is kind of a pipe dream: I'll be honest, yeah I would love to get a PhD but that's a long ways away. I hope to get my honours degree, and then get my masters exactly one year after. From there, I will have to see how it goes.

I'm not taking these courses out of cockiness, i'm taking them out of fear.

I am only a second year right now, but I do plan on getting a masters. From there we will have to see, but that is too far away for me to think about now. However, yeah, my life would be complete if I got a PhD.

It seems like anyone half serious about economics should have all of these math courses. I can see the pain coming for people. If you try to go into an advanced econ course with minimal mathematical prereq's, expect to leave in tears. That's why i'm taking these classes lol. I do not want to leave in tears. And yeah I can see a lot of people are not going to take higher math courses and are going to get absolutely steamrolled come advanced econ.

this was one of my old schedules:

biochemistry
real analysis
medicinal chemistry 1
pharmaceuticals 1

Introduction to Optics and EM
Optics and EM Lab
Linear Algebra I
Vector Calculus

Cognitive Psychology
Cerebral Cortex: Systems and Structures (grad class)
Neuroscience Honors Research II: Thesis Writing
Trig-based Physics II

Oh yeah hey. I will probably take that in my fourth year, first semester. I've heard it's important, but I don't see a heavy need for it quite quite yet.

Mathematical Economics- Requires LA1 and Calc1 as prereqs. I have seen the midterm, and you need LA2 and intermediate calculus to be successful in it. Nobody wants to have to learn math on the fly. I did that in my pre-econometrics course last semester and it was not fun. Had to learn higher statistics, calculus.... and even higher economic theory to be successful in a class where the prereqs weren't too demanding.

So yeah, the calculus is for, well, everything, the LA2 is for mathematical econ, and the stats is for econometrics. In the long run, they're all for courses above what i'll be taking next year.

But yeah back to real analysis, do you know off by hand any general economic applications it has? Should i maybe consider it before taking differential equations? "Real Analysis" sounds fucking BOSS anyway.

>>2396544

>EE

Guess again. Engineers at my school don't take Vector Calculus. They just need Multivariable.

>>2396523

Thing is, with you're (planned) course load, you probably won't need to do a masters. If you ace your math classes, Phd programs will already see that as a strong enough signal.

I'm the econ guy and what I have been calling "intermediate caculus I" consists of infinite series, vector calculus, and multivariable calc. Just how it is at my institution, seems more logical to do it that way imho.

>>2396568

At my school it goes:

Differential Calculus
Integral Calculus
Multivariable Calculus
--- Engineer Line ---
Vector Calculus

>>2396561

Yes, yes, it is only a 'plan' right now, i'm not gonna talk like i'm a boss or anything. But it is the best decision, so I think I will go through with it. I do want to challenge myself.

And yeah because I am only in my second year, I have not looked at grad schools yet. the way I kind of see it though is I can get a masters in one year after BA, and won't those master courses be equivalent to a first year PhD program, aka I can get a masters and PhD in the same amount of time it would take me to just get a PhD? Just the way i've seen it. And yes I cannot really speculate about specific decisions until AFTER i've taken all these courses haha. However, right now, the long term goal is to go for a PhD, and I would be extremely humbled if I one day got a job as an instructor/researcher at a university.

>>2396494
Yep

>>2396578

Specifically, at my school, I lied.

Engineers have their own route which goes, calculus specific:
Calc I
Calc II
Calc III etc...

They do infinite (taylor series) in Calc I

Whereas non-engineers like myself go:
Elementary Calc I
Elementary Calc II
Intermediate Calc I
Intermediate Calc II
Analysis I etc....

There is nothing wrong with going this route, you could even argue that after the non-engineerign route, you are at a higher level of calculus than the engineers. You seem to go through calculus slower, but deeper. Even if engineering calculus is harder to keep up with.

I'm the guy to replied too.

I'm actually a Physics Major, and quite jelly on how detailed they go through math at your school.

Math majors and engineer/physics majors take the same math classes, but engineers only need few while the physics majors need more. Actually, EE majors have a vector calculus/complex variables combo class, but they only do quick applications of both subjects.

Pretty damn jelly. So much math I want to learn, but so few only count.

Yeah it's all i've ever known lol. Anyways if you're in physics, you do the non-engineering route.

Oh and I did forget to add something major.

There is another route that is opened to engineers and non-engineers.

Everything the same but with honours in front of the name.

Honours Calculus I, etc....'

This the the first page of the first year honours calculus route calculus I textbook. Looks scary. This is day one for these freaks lol.

Nah, it's just that none of those courses is much over 20 people if any one is; I'm in all three and you could probably figure out the university by even an abbreviated version of the name and then, well, it speaks for itself.

When a post narrows me down from the almost 2 billion internet users way past the English-speaking ones to 11 people and the exact place I am at some point 4 or 5 days out of the week, that seems like personally identifiable information. I post my hair color and length and I would probably have totally identified myself.

Imagine a philosophy major taking your courses.

>>2396819
You might not have even declared yet.

>>2396820
You imagine a philosophy major taking all math courses, or mathematical logic courses?

Mathematical Logic courses I've taken include: Introduction to Math Logic, Symbolic Logic, Set Theory, Computability Theory

The standard math courses include: Calculus I-III, Analysis, Algebra, Linear Algebra, Discrete, Geometry

I am a Math Major, but I suppose some Philosophy students would be interested in the logic side (like I am).

>>2396823

Well, I do declare.
