Default Re: calc 1 vs calc 2 vs calc 3

Calc II was the hardest for me but unlike you guys I found series and sequences to be the easiest part of the class. I had trouble with some of the integral stuff.

Edit:
This is off track but I need to take one more elective after the upcoming semester to complete my math minor and I was wondering what classes use the series stuff. I thought the Calc II stuff was kind of interesting but I don't know if there are any classes that specialize in that kind of stuff.

Maybe Real Analysis?

Yes. A course in real analysis will spend a great deal of time covering sequences / series. Typically real analysis is one of the tougher undergraduate math courses.

What's your major?

I'm a chem major. If Real Analysis is a really difficult class I'm staying away from it because I've already got enough [censored] on the chem side to worry about. I just figured that since I breezed through the sequence/series stuff in Calc II that a class focusing on them wouldn't be too difficult.
