When does college math start getting hard? literally sleeping through calc 3 right now

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 14:30:37 2019 No.11158075 >>11158068 Differential equations or topology. Also, remember that it doesn't matter if you're acing all the tests if you can't prove / don't understand the theorems (particularly relevant for diff eqs)

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 14:32:23 2019 No.11158081 >>11158068 >literally sleeping through calc 3 right now Might be because you're in a shitty program

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 14:34:17 2019 No.11158087 >>11158075 lmao, not even pde was that hard of a class, although math students who'd never taken a physics course got destroyed at the beginning when deriving the wave into a membrane

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 14:40:21 2019 No.11158099 >>11158087 >The proof for existence and uniqueness of solutions for an initial value problem is easy. You're either a genius or a brainlet.

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 14:41:41 2019 No.11158103 Discrete math was hard, but that was likely due to the prof

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 21:17:29 2019 No.11159100 >>11158068 Calc 3 is the easiest calculus lmao. -Differential Equations -Second half of applied analysis -Applied analysis 2 - Math Phys -Numerical analysis I think is challenging, or so I've heard. Still got ways to go

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 22:22:48 2019 No.11159240 its literally almost completely dependent on the professor

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 22:55:14 2019 No.11159307 >>11159240 Nope.

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 22:59:40 2019 No.11159321 >>11158068 diffusion and BVPs

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 22:59:56 2019 No.11159322 >>11158068 If you want a real challenge Don't turn up to any lectures Don't do any non-mandatory homework Turn up to the exam with no revision or practice or even looking at the material Enjoy

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 18 23:00:51 2019 No.11159328 >>11158068 Are you taking proofs-based Calc 3 or Retard-Unbased "Calc 3"?

>>11158068
Once you realize that 99.999...% of math is unsolvable without a numerical method, and of the ....00...1% of math that can be solved symbolically, 99.999...% of that is better to solve numerically anyways. That's when you decide to start studying numerical analysis and it becomes very hard to not claw your eyes out from boredom of writing tedious programs in math software and plugging numbers into your calculator over and over again.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 19 02:15:14 2019 No.11159719 >>11159643 This. If you didn't complete your lower division coursework in high school, you're never gonna make it.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 19 02:56:21 2019 No.11159774 >>11159766 Unless you're actually being made to use proofs it's not real maths.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 19 10:19:39 2019 No.11160365 Are maths courses standardised in the US or something? What the hell is calculus 3?

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 19 13:20:51 2019 No.11160797 >>11159766 >You know calc 3 isn't just simple computations, right? Show your syllabus.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 19 13:40:07 2019 No.11160835 How the fuck do I optimize and use Lagrange multipliers and shit?

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 19 13:44:00 2019 No.11160848 >>11159501 Are these problems that are confirmed to not have algebraic solutions or do they maybe have solutions?

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 19 15:03:27 2019 No.11161076 >>11160848 Forget algebraic. They're not even analytic.

>>	Anonymous Tue Nov 19 15:07:02 2019 No.11161089 >>11159766 Calc 3 literally IS just simple computations. You just apply algorithms you learn in class. There are no proofs.
