I had an easier time in Differential Equations than Calculus III, but different people find different things difficult. There are some concepts that appear ...
Diff Eq involves way more memorization than Calc 3. In Diff Eq you need to know how to recognize what problem you are dealing wtih and how to solve it. [/quote]
I'd recommend Calc III before Differential Equations. Calc is about the same difficulty as Calc I and DiffEQ will make a little more sense after going through Multivariable, assuming that's what your Calc III is. Eventually I'd take both, but definitely Calc before DiffEQ. 11. level 2.
Answer (1 of 7): I actually took all 3 of these concurrently last semester. Personally, I found differential equations to be the hardest, but this was largely due the professor of that course having the philosophy that being able to quickly and accurately do …
31.05.2015 · Differential Equations, if you have a decent teacher, is pretty straightforward. If you remember integration from Cal 2, where you need to identify which technique is best to use to integrate something, differential equations is basically the same thing–try to identify/rewrite the equation to something that fits a familiar rule.
Jun 19, 2008 · It's not a matter of one being more difficult than the other- Topics from Calculus III are used in Differential equations (partial derivatives, exact differentials, etc.). Calculus III can be taken at the same time, but that is harder. Calculus III should be a prerequisite for Differential Equations.
Apr 03, 2019 · Calc 3: Extrema of functions of several variables. Multiple integration and applications. Vector fields and their derivatives. Curves. Vector differential operators. Line integrals. Surfaces and surface integrals. Theorems of Stokes, Gauss, etc. ODE and Numerical Methods: General concepts. First order equations. Linear differential equations of ...
Jan 25, 2009 · So far, I am finding Differential Equations to be simple compared to Calc 3. In Calc 3, you will need to get used to memorizing the equations and theorems in the latter part of the course. Setting up the integrals is probably the hardest part of Calc 3. [/quote] </p> <p>Diff Eq involves way more memorization than Calc 3.
22.06.2008 · Calc 3 will definitely help you better understand the E&M calculations. I took Physics 2 ( which included topics such as flux ) before I took Calc 3, and I wish I would have taken Calc3 first to help me better understand the 3-D calculations, but in the end it all works out I guess.
Differential Equations or Calc 3. Close. 5. Posted by 4 years ago. Archived. Differential Equations or Calc 3. I'm not sure if this is the right sub to post this, but I've already read discussions about this and I came here to get more opinions before I make my final judgement.
May 31, 2015 · Differential equations is the hardest math class for a typical engineering curriculum: (Calc I-III + DE’s). I ended up with a ~91% in a class which lucky for me does not to give any pluses or minuses so I got an “A.”
Apr 22, 2015 · 7. QuantumCurt said: I took differential equations before calculus 3. I got an A in differential equations and will get an A in calculus 3 this semester. There is some overlap between the two courses such as the use of partial derivatives to solve differential equations of multiple variables.
Students intending to continue to Calculus III and Differential Equations will probably find 108-109 ... Or perhaps Calculus III followed by Linear Algebra.
