Let me make something abundantly clear to you OP:

You're standards are not high, they're lower than average even, you have such a high dropout rate because you're genetically retarded, not because your work is more difficult.

Pretty much no proofs, just solve problems.

Yeah, that's nothing.

>>7202784
Then you didn't learn anything in linear algebra. Because that's as basic as you can get.

Unless, of course by "linear algebra" you mean you took a intro to matrices class and thought it was linear algebra, because they insisted on calling it that.

it's obvious it's an engineering class, the problems are piss-easy plug-chug, no proofs

you still can't do any of it because you're retarded

the only constraint for which i gave this a 4/10 is because of the time vs amount of questions. but if you can't do them because of difficulty, man, wow

My linear algebra was proof based and the lecturers were profs from the math department.

No I meant my class had no "If A = [a,a1,a2,...an] then Ae_n=] bullshit

look buddy all i need to know how to do is solve linear systems with matrices and calculate determinants

everything else should be saved for mathniggers. they should not even have a linear algebra course for anyone but physics and math majors because the extent to which all other majors would use it is what i just mentioned and can be taught in maybe 2 weeks.

look man, me and almost every other person on earth is never going to have to solve something like that. If the word "subspace" is in a problem, it should be encountered only in a math major course. Same with vector spaces. Same with any space except maybe eigenspaces.

pretty much any problem that contains the word "space" and isn't referring to an eigenspace is going to be a proof and should only be in math major courses.

OP, you're a fucking retard. I'm also a student of this shitty university, and the engineering math courses don't even deserve to be called so. It's a shame math majors are forced to take them, but I guess the directors would rather spend money on engineers like you than on a decent math education.

That's just the dumbed down engineering part of it, though. The pure math stuff isn't so bad, but still far behind any decent university. It doesn't matter too much though, the actually motivated students will just study on their own anyways.
