Prep for quantum mechanics

[hover]

Hey everyone,

I have a question (duh :P). I am hoping to take a course on quantum mechanics and I was wondering what math is necessary to understand the course material. I assume that the math needed is everything up to calculus and linear algebra. Am I correct?

Thanks

Yes, the underlying math is mostly linear algebra, (vector spaces, operators, eigenvalue problems), calculus (differential equations) and probability theory.

Seconded.

Partial differential equations are important.
