Proof Laden Semester -- Should I?
Hello all,
I am trying decide whether or not I should take an intro to proof writing, linear algebra, and an advanced INTRO physics course of which I'm told the latter two have an appreciable emphasis on proofs (at least where I'm at). For someone who hasn't had any exposure to proofs would this be a good idea? I know this is really a question I should be asking myself, but I just wanted to hear other people's opinions on the topic. I plan on getting a PhD in physics so I realize I'll probably take these eventually but due to timing, I can only take the second physics course which allows me to fill my semester with math courses not explicitly required by my major.
