SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the feasibility of managing four challenging classes simultaneously: Calculus III, Physics II, Digital Logic, and Circuit Analysis. Participants confirm that Physics II is indeed calculus-based Electricity and Magnetism (E&M) and clarify that Calculus III is typically the engineering version. Given these confirmations, it is concluded that taking these courses concurrently is manageable for students willing to put in the effort.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of calculus concepts, specifically Calculus III.
  • Familiarity with physics principles, particularly Electricity and Magnetism.
  • Basic knowledge of digital logic design.
  • Foundational skills in circuit analysis techniques.
NEXT STEPS
  • Research effective time management strategies for handling multiple courses.
  • Explore resources for mastering Electricity and Magnetism concepts.
  • Investigate study techniques specifically for digital logic and circuit analysis.
  • Review engineering versus pure mathematics approaches in Calculus III.
USEFUL FOR

Students transitioning to a new school, particularly those enrolled in engineering programs, and anyone seeking to balance multiple rigorous courses effectively.

Is Calc three, physics 2, digital logic and circuit analysis to much just starting at a new school? Any suggestions or comments are appreciated.
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Is Physics 2 calc-based E&M?

Also, is Calc 3 the engineering version or pure math version?

The aforesaid makes a different IMO.

If the answer to the 2 questions above is YES I would say it is definitely doable.
 
The answer is yes. Thanks!
