Applied Multivariate Methods (undergrad statistics)

>ok
>second day immediately launches into a clusterfuck of matrix algebra
>more inconsistent and elaborate notation then i've seen in any other topic, including financial math
>get A in the class because prof was a pushover who basically gave homework solutions in his office hours
am I a brainlet?

>>8616620
anyone that has a problem with the mechanics portion of physics shouldn't be allowed in engineering.

>>8617475
Sure, why not?

Also, bump.

It's not newtonian mechanics, it's hamiton and lagrange. That's way over most engineers

As only 4th semester EE none of my courses have really been difficult at all. The circuits 2 I have this semester may be tougher than it has to be though because the teacher has a very low rating on ratemyprof.

>>8618002
That's true for most engineers. However, any third year, mechanical engineer who wants to get into robotics knows about it.

However, I think that teaching Legrangian mechanics to Civils is a bit extreme and unrelated.

Math in Moscow-esque program lacking all the pre-reqs as basically a freshman in grad level courses taught by russians.

5 minutes in and they covered all of undergrad algebra

Very extreme. When I told my professor my major, he literally laughed and said I might as well drop the class, as there's no way I'd pass with an A.

He was right. I passed with a C-. Literally 2 points and .02% above a 70%.

Do they have a reputation? The one russian professor I had fucked my shit up.

Functional analysis

>>8620161
>>8620171
>Functional

wut, functional is a logical and reasonable subject.

Probably intro to string theory for me. We did conformal field theory, then applications to string theory. Was pretty brutal. I probably struggled the most with category theory tho desu, I'm a mathematical physicist and don't have a really good intuitive grasp on algebra and we did lots of homological algebra.

>differential geometry
the real deal. I mean principal connections, soldering form and similar shit, not introduction to smooth manifolds.

>>8620187
It really is, it is a very neat subject. I didn't find it outrageously difficult, but of all the classes that I've taken in my masters, I thought it was the most demanding one.

>>8620166
There isnt one really. I took his class, he went 0-100 and then slammed everyone on the exam. After being asked about the extremely low passing rate he was like "iz life".

Ayyy I'm taking a grad vibrations course too, but it's going way slower

My hardest course was probably QM1 in undergrad, though a grad FEM course is a close second. Got Cs in both.

Same here but took the course as a grad student after working in industry for a few years.

>mfw no nigger it's not
