Is differential equations ez? I took Calc 1 and 2 over 3 years ago and dont recall mych about integrals but some differentiation

Yes

In differential equations you start with differentials so pretty much it is all integration.
I just took DE this past semester. First half of the class was mostly integration, second half was mostly linear algebra. I don't know though, it also depends on your professor. As a side note, I understood differential equations way more than I understood linear algebra.
Differential equations is pure calculus. So yes it's easy.

If that's your math resume we could place DE around Calc I difficulty (of course as difficult as Calc 1 was when you were learning it, because looking back on it is childs play)
You need to know basic integrals from Calc 1.
You need to know integration by parts aND partial fractions from Calc 2.
In multivariable and linear algebra you learn about linear independence and matrices. These will be used as well.
It's not hard if you know the basics.
If you don't, it can be a nightmare.
The integration part of a first semester DE course can be self-taught in a day (ESPECIALLY if you've had it before). And this isn't >I had topology in 3rd grade-tier memeing. It's just integration by parts and partial fractions, like >>8578179 says. You will be fine.

yep the integration is relatively trivial, the main challenge is recognizing when to use each method for given equations.. but you have plenty of ways to figure out your method
Differential equations is simple as fuck and if you can't manage to get at least a B in that class then rest assured that your math skills are garbage. It's just calculus and a few new topics but relatively as simple as any other math course. I'd say statistics is harder than differential equations.
