It was bad.

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Bad difficulty wise or bad performance wise?

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Both. Performance due to difficulty.

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Condolences.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Eh. I'll make it.

I never actually learned about linear approximations in Calc 1 and it is biting me in the butt right now in Calc 3.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Ow. LinAlg doesn't require anything like that.

<Snipped quote by Meta>

We haven't even done linear algebra yet.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

That's a class, not a unit in Calc.

<Snipped quote by Legend>

We learn linear algebra in calc here.

@Meta

It can't be too much, because I know that people who started the class with it ended up not being too far behind us by our first exam.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Started the class with it?

<Snipped quote by Meta>

Some calc 3 classes teach linear algebra first then do others later, and others, like mine, teach it at the end.

<Snipped quote by Heroic>

Ah. I'm not sure why they'd teach it at all; it's a different kind of math entirely.

<Snipped quote by Meta>

The american education system is so stupidly designed and handled that I wouldn't be surprised if you get taught advanced astronomy in a chemistry class.

It is, though this is university, and they can almost do whatever they want.
