Short Calculus

College Life
1

<p>I was looking at the agricultural and food business management at the University of Minnesota, and I was wondering what the difference between short calc and calc 1? Does this also mean that I could take only stats as my math? It said Stat or Math? Sorry I’m a high school Junior who is new to all of this. </p>

<p>calc for the dimwitted?</p>

<p>According to the description it is a very basic streamlined version of calculus. Rather than 3 in depth classes like most calculus sequences is just a hodge podge of various calc topics taught in a very broad sense.</p>

<p>The way I read it, it says you will have to take stats and calculus.</p>

<p>Yea, I figured. Thanks you guys. Lol on above post about calc for dimwitted</p>

<p>lol</p>

<p>Yeah at UMD there are like three calc courses. Calc for chem and the life sciences, calc for business and calc for engineering/physical sciences. And of course more advanced calculus courses depending on one’s major.</p>

<p>Wow, Calculus sounds really hard. What is it?</p>

<p>^ A calculus is a small rock or pebble. Of course it’s hard.</p>

<p>Does anyone know if M.Arch programs prefer the Calc prereq to be Calc I as opposed to Short Calc or Physics focused Calc?</p>
