Did any of you use a textbook for calculus 1? I'm not sure if it's necessary.
>>
>>9123585
no bully, just get the PDF mate, almost all books are accessible online regardless of legality, haven't bought a single book my entire undergrad career.

Yes. I was shit at math. I had some low tier calc textbook that covered calc 1-3. I did at least 10 problems every day. Even if its a low tier, as long as you have a decent professor and a lot of practice problems, the physical textbook will be worth having. Well, it was worth it to me.

How can you learn it? Through osmosis?

Get a book.

I still refer to my old calculus textbook once in a while.
>>
>>9123643
oh okay because my manlet friend never used a textbook and he got a B+. In fact he didn't even buy one. Good money saver on his part.

My stewart textbook will be useful until at least the end of calculus II.
Didn't use it much during calculus I, only when the professor needed to get replaced and we got a more formulaic teacher

Pirate the textbook and learn the material on your own, you fucking brainlet.

This. I used Thomas's Calculus. It had the solutions manual and everything.

Why is it that ameritards learn calc in uni? First class i attended in uni was anal and we used Zorich in first semester and big Rudin+Demidovich in second semester. Even physishits go straight to anal, only engineers have clac before brushing on anal.

American high school only requires three years of math and it doesn't matter which classes. It's the reason I'm shit at mathematics because I finished math sophomore year (did semester math classes in homeschooling). I'm taking calc now and I can't even remember basic algebra and trig since I haven't seen it in 4 years.

I feel so dumb

We had to buy Adam & Essex for calc 1.
It helped me for calc 2 (vectorial analysis), pde (everytime i needed a reminder on particular case of ode) and I still use it time to time for reference or when i'm stuck on the basic stuff (it's awful how fast you can forget basic calc 1 when you're not using it).
So yes, it's always a good
investment (if the book you plan to buy has a reasonable price ofc).

You know that A in Calculus is required for Grad School.
Enjoy your future underpaid job.
At least isn't C aka Job in Mc Donald's

>>9124565
Rightfully so. But honestly, calc textbooks are useless, if you just read Kolmogorov, you're ready for anal and that's where you'll actually understand calc. There's no reason at all to learn calc before anal to the degree it's in those books.

What if I get a B in calculus I and an A in calculus II & III?

It won't matter at that point will it?

I didn't "need" one till I got to calc II because all our homework was take him worksheets, then I used it pretty much the rest of the time because the teacher had taken hw problems straight from the book.
>>
>>9123585
No, we used webassign
>>
>>9125149
I actually got a B in calc 1 and an A for calc 2/3.

Is this a normal thing?
