    Is a 3.6 GPA enough to pursue a career in physics?

    I think it's a bit early to ask if you can become a physicist. If you like science, then pursue it. You don't come close enough to knowing enough physics/math to know whether or not you would like to major in it much less go to grad school. Just relax. Work on improving your grades and maybe...

    Algebra A book of Abstract Algebra by Pinter

    Great book. I think a (HS) student with a deep interest in mathematics would enjoy his informal, yet rigorous exposition to the material. If one already knows proofs, a more advanced book would probably be more appropriate.

    Calculus How Does Larson's Calculus Provide a Comprehensive Learning Experience?

    It's a decent exposure for HS calculus. In my opinion, it focuses to much on apply formulas. Then and again, that's high school calculus.

    Geometry Question: What is Geometry Revisited by Coxeter?

    Good for high school math competitions. Almost all the topics are not covered in a standard high school math course.

    Should I Take Real Analysis I as a Sophomore?

    What is the description for vector analysis. I would guess PDEs are useful for appplied, but I'm not qualified to say it's true nor what you should take. I'd suggest for someone else's opinion. Ask your professors; they know the most.

    Should I Take Real Analysis I as a Sophomore?

    If you look at this webpage, you can see some of the Analysis problems. If they interest you, you might want to take it. https://web.math.princeton.edu/~adeptrep/lowerdiv/215/MAT215

    Should I Take Real Analysis I as a Sophomore?

    It's great if you can keep up with the classes, but I would think Real Analysis already assumes a good grasp/knowledge with proofs. EDIT: Oh - it's baby Rudin. It's not that bad then. At Princeton, Baby Rudin is used as a honors math track. It's rigorous, but if you commit to it, you'll do...

    Natural log (ln x) derivative question

    Is that a ##f(y)##? Or like ##f(x) = y =~ ...##

    Differentiate the following equation

    You're derivative is right. Are you sure they didn't ask you to evaluate the derivative at some point? I'm guessing that they want you to evaluate it at 0.
