    Programs Sequencing Calc II, linear algebra, differential equations and analysis as a math major

    I can't really change anything now, but I'm not too worried about this semester. It'll be very time-consuming, certainly, but I'm pretty confident. I took physics last semester and am taking it also this semester. But I'm pretty much fine with all algebra and trig. I think our intro linear...

    Nope. For reference, if you're a math major, the suggested sequence (with no AP credit or anything) is Calc I -> Calc II -> Multivariable -> DiffEq + Linear Algebra + Supplementary Elective -> Analysis I + UL Elective + Supplementary Elective, which each arrow pointing to a new semester.

    Programs Sequencing Calc II, linear algebra, differential equations and analysis as a math major

    "This course is a systematic study of basic analysis with an emphasis on formal proofs, examples and counter examples. Topics include properties of the real line, sequences, series, limits, continuity and differentiation of functions, and Riemann Integration. Note: Highly recommended is CMSC...

    Programs Sequencing Calc II, linear algebra, differential equations and analysis as a math major

    Hi, I saw there was another thread about becoming a mathematician, but as far as I know, this is somewhat different. Anyway, I am a first-year university student, and am going to start my 2nd semester next week. For various reasons I won't go into, I didn't really take any math in high school...

    General interest in physics without formal training

    I just made this account because I find myself stumbling upon this forum a lot through Google. I am not a Physics major, but I do have a general interest in it.

    What type of calculus is in physics 1?

    At my school, Calculus I is only a co-requisite for Physics I, so we used barely any at all. Like we had some basic integrals (center of mass, gravitational field, moment of inertia), and maybe a few derivatives on homework (wave equations). Of course, I'm just talking about what we actually had...
