How difficult is Differential Equations and Discrete Math compared to Linear Algebra and Multivariable Calculus

@RichInPitt

DiffEq courses (ODE and PDE) were a continuation of the calculus sequence, so it was a logical progression.

Agree.

@RichInPitt

I found Discrete pretty easy

Agree there too.

From what I recall, performance there didn’t mean much elsewhere. It’s probably built upon for a Math/CS degree, but I don’t recall using it much in future engineering coursework, certainly not DE/Discrete.

Disagree strongly there. Linear algebra is among the most useful math subjects. It’s so widely used throughout sciences, engineering, economics and other social sciences, and of course, many other math subjects.
