@ElenaParent I know this is controversial. But I’ve found a lot of people in the software industry, including some professors who agree that Logic is to Computer Science as Calculus is to Physics (can’t post links in the forum, but at least two Professors teaching Comp. Sci. at Stanford and John Hopkins claim that CS prospects should be taught Logic and Discrete Math instead of Calculus). On a personal note, my husband is a senior software developer working for a well-known software company and he flunked Calculus 1 and 2 at school (passed with a C after retaking both classes), and he’s far from fluent in Calculus to this day, despite having worked as a lead developer and a software development manager for many years.
However, I do agree that any class that helps you improve your thought process and problem-solving skills is obviously not a waste of time, and I’m sure MATH 1B is one of them!
