First time around I didn't study much as math had always been easy for me. Calc changed that. Second time around I got an A though so I guess that made up for it.

Is calc really that hard that you need to study or am I literally retarded? I didn't study a single minute in the whole semester, the only thing I did for that class was take notes on some lectures.

calc is easy shit, you just have to cram the bullshit. Discrete math tho is the fucking assfuckery

>>58074652
>not taking notes every lecture
???

>>58074670
>Discrete math
is that what some people call "proofs"?

>>58074689
No, it's everything dealing with discrete structures like graph theory, abstract algebra, set theory etc

>>58074652
calc is much easier if you have good fundamentals. Then you only have to worry about the concepts you're learning for Cacl itself. I knew some people who could barely do algebra type shit and Calculus just blew their mind, best they could do was memorize how to do problems. The problem with that is when they throw you a curve ball on the exam the memorization meme breaks down.

>>58074676
I didn't attend to every lecture and in some I tried to just pay attention to the prof without writing anything down.
I don't think that worked because I'm pretty sure I have ADHD so 1000 things are going through my mind all the time.

Still managed to pass though lel

I can pass any class, fucking speech 101 and english 101 were the hardest though. I did everything well in speech, had some interesting presentations, talked confidently and shit but the nigger still gave me a B. On the other hand I have got As in literally all college math from Calc 1 to Calc 3 plus linear algebra and fucking differential equations. Guess I should stop taking stupid liberal arts classes, but that's where all them girls at...

I got a D- in Highschool math so.... Yeah CS was probably not a good option since i am just getting by, but i wanted to get a CS degree cause i like to program and wanna program for a living.

I had to take discrete math twice.
To be fair the first professor was a sadist cunt Personality wise (he made me cry in class)

I studied IT majoring in Software Engineering in Europe

I struggled the most with Electricity and Physics... For some reason even Advanced Calculus was easier..

Maybe it had to do with me smoking too much weed... well I'm glad that's all over

Fuck math. Anything beyond multiplication, division and basic equations are completely beyond me.

Even a friend who is a fucking math virtuoso who taught a lot of people math says that he never saw such an anti-talent for math as myself.

I guess I am a brainlet for life.

Tfw cheated my way to a B.S. in comp sci, and am now in flight school for the Navy.

Never gonna write a single line of code the rest of my life.

I was like two points above a failing grade for Algebra but I aced Calculus because apparently I'm retarded when it comes to shapes.

>>58076705
I'm the opposite, I did wonderful in geometry and the intro-to-trig thing within geometry, but algebra kicked my ass and busted my balls to hell and back

I'm wondering if I can get by by teaching myself with khan academy and diligence, and maybe once I have a better grasp on algebra it won't be so difficult

>>58074160
none, just maths giving me a bad time. finishing it up now, just gonna take a summer class and hopefully get that passing grade i need.

None. There were a couple I took a C or D in, but I got all of them the first time.

It's mostly discreet math with little analysis, but you need a good understanding of the fundamentals to do well.

>>58074253
Practice until you understand what the fuck is going on. Math is easy, but can't be learned that easily. It must be exercised. Remembering some obscure rule must become second nature, and understand the rules makes this WAY easier.

Computer architecture, I failed it twice and finally scraped a pass. Now the uni doesn't even offer it as a module :')

The CS courses were a challenge but not like physics.

Any CS intro class. I've attempted CS three separate times at three different universities and dropped the class each time. I've tried twice on my own (outside of school) to start programming and didn't get that either. For reference I pretty much coasted through every subject in high school and college with >3.5 GPA, but I'm just retarded when it comes to programming.

I'm going to study CS at Uni next year.
I'm currently doing some shit IT course in college (britfag college) but I did AS maths a couple years back.

How fucked am I? The fact that some unis were willing to accept my qualification without A level math gave me hope. But seeing this thread now makes me wanna die.

Whyd you cry anon

>>58074785
One semester I took something similar:
Linear algebra
Differential equations
A math proofs course
Data Structures
And I got an A in Data Structures, 2 B's, and a C in diff eq. I felt I should've been able to get straight A's, but the amount of homework and studying I had to do for the math courses really strained my grade. Definitely doable, but don't be surprised if you don't do as well as expected.

>>58074209
Calc for me. It's not a matter of understanding, it's just that I can't give a fuck about calculus. Nobody ever convinced me why a cs major who aspires to be a codemonkey needs calculus

I'm a poorfag who wants to go to CC for 2 years and transfer to a 4 year to get a degree in CS. Anybody have any experience with that? Did CC prepare you for a 4 year? I'm just really worried because I've been working for years to save up money for this and don't want to blow it.

>>58087962
yeah this part sucks, all my counselors are lazy pieces of shit and never help me work out a good schedule either.

I have a course that won't update as having been taken, so when i sign up for classes online, it says i miss prereqs. And every year i goto the admin and ask them to fix it, and they just force my classes into my schedule, instead of just fixing it online.
