What does your research adviser think of your chances?

Alternatively, he may be able to take "placement tests" that let him skips the prereqs even if they don't give him credit for the courses.

I can't recommend CS @ UIUC highly enough. Having said that, UT Austin is fantastic as well. UIUC will get extremely cold in the winter. It will be uncomfortable. UT Austin will get extremely hot during the summer.

This is a good one: http://www.ices.utexas.edu/ There are also a lot of programs that give you a specialization in computational science, such as: http://www.cse.illinois.edu/ http://csme.ucsd.edu/ http://www.cse.ucsb.edu/

Can you do research at a nearby school?

Sometimes we multiply. :-p

Half the people I know think that math majors spend all day adding numbers in their heads.

What area of computer science? Some areas have more "prerequisites" than others, and your IE experience will probably be more applicable to certain areas.

Can you give us a course description for the course you are taking now?

When did I mention grades?

I attended nearly every lecture for every class I've taken over the last year (I could count the number of absences on my fingers) and never read a textbook except to supplement the lectures. Not once have I ever sat down and read an entire chapter out of a textbook. Often I did not read the...

In my linear algebra class, we studied integral transforms when we studied change of basis and also touched on ODEs a bit, although there was only a total of 1 question between those two subjects on the final exam and none on the midterms.
