Cs department requires calc 3 and linear algebra

>cs department requires calc 3 and linear algebra
>I barely passed calc 2 with a 2.1 (cutoff was 2.0)

Why do they do this to me? I aced my intro the cs classes but now I'm getting stonewalled over shit arbitrary requirements

calc II was difficult I agree. I hated objects of revolution, but linear algebra is fun.

CS is applied mathematics. Get used to brainlet.

Calc 2 was fun! Calc 3 was ass though

>I'm forced to learn mathematics that is useful
kys

>paying $40K a year for something so easily learned on your own a Pajeet can do it

CS students are the ultimate cucks. Biggest red flag for me was all of the women and brown skinners. Got right the fuck outta here and switched majors to engineering.

If you don't know maths, you're not a programmer. Typing on a keyboard has no intellectual prerequisites.

Fuck off you cunt, at least you don't have metallurgy or manufacture system class there.

I unironically switched from CS to CpE when I learned about the "engineering practicum" system at Jewgle which is literally a guaranteed Google internship for niggers and women. What the fuck.

Buckle down and try harder, faggot. Go practice your Math until it sticks. Don't let Jow Forums tell you what you're not capable of, most of the fucks here have a fixed anti-growth mindset.

If you can't do calc 3 and linear algebra then you're not going to be anything more than a shit tier code monkey so just switch to IT or some other brainlet major

Try not being stupid.

This isn't that hard, we covered everything but linear algebra in high school. Linear algebra I already took at college.

Are you generalizing me? I'll have you know I graduated in the top of my class with a 7.0 GPA and honors with two purple hearts from the war against minorities and females in my CS curriculum.

SIR PLS DELET THIS

sir plez downloat the durga durga jawa microsoft software pakaj thank

Don't listen to this, you're wasting your time. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses, if you suck at math you will always suck at math, putting in extra effort just to reach par is wasted time and potential. Spend that time focusing on your strengths.

I also switched to CpE, CS bored the shit out of me. Still gonna apply to CS jobs though, just wanted to learn some electrical

Nice. CSfags won't admit it but we actually blow them out when it comes to programming as well. We think in instructions/cycle and hardware portability and CStards are stuck in their circlejerk abstractions.

Who cares? You get paid less for doing more work. Why would anybody want that? In the end its only about money

Any good CS program requires at least a Computer Architecture class as well.

Doesn't even matter though, someone who writes Java code will be a better programmer if they take and OOD class rather than fucking around with state machines in VHDL

Decades worth of research begs to differ

where do I learn linear algebra concepts? the problems are brain-dead easy but i don't know what the fuck i'm even doing

>not doing a double major and covering the full range

if you can't pass calc iii you're probably not cut out for university desu

>bragging about being a code monkey

This is unironically why I webdev

ffs what you are complaining about?
you faggots only have mongo math

it's not hard and it's math you are going to use unless you just plan on becoming a pajet

Those classes are easy. As more and more programmers pour into the industry, the only ones getting jobs are the clever ones. There are so many fools in my graduating class from last year that still can't find even a simple Java job because they can't answer math/CS questions in the interview. It's survival of the fittest.

>it's easy for me which means it's easy for everyone!
Why are smart people so stupid?

How are you supposed to pass your graphics class without linear algebra lmao

not 1 module in my cs course
git fkd

I was never good at math. Think the fucking Christ back in the day my H.S only required Pre Al, Algebra I, and Geometry as credits in order to graduate. Pro Tip: Depending on career all that high level math is shit useless. So far in my 15 years of professional working all I ever done is the basics (Add/Sub/Divide/Multiply). I've honesty forgotten most of the shit I learned in most of my classes. Ironically, I passed a Business Law class with a 3.0 average despite the fact I didn't want the class anyway; school dumped me in it after the class I did want was full (Electives)

wtf i had to take statics for my software engineering bs

r u a chink? calc 2 was just boring plug and chug while memorizing identities, while calc 3 was thinking outside the box, completely breaking down the foundations of what you thought calculus was. fuck, i miss calc 3

You can become proficient but you won't become Einstein. You should do a job no one else is better than you at.

>This isn't that hard

That's the joke.

CpE is literally the "jack of all trades, master of none" major. You don't learn enough for an electrical engineering career and CS majors have the leg up in applied programming knowledge. The major conveys a lack of direction and commitment

>You can become proficient
For most people, even that's a pipe dream.
I really hate the "you can achieve x as long as you work hard!" meme.

>CpE is literally the "jack of all trades, master of none" major

No, that's biomedical engineering.

>You don't learn enough for an electrical engineering career

They take all the core courses. The only difference is electives.

>and CS majors have the leg up in applied programming knowledge

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, no.

Because they have legit autism, they are sevants in one field and drooling imbeciles in all others.

The x implies it's whatever you're working towards you mong. The saying doesn't mean a fish can ride a bike if it tries hard enough. If you're working towards something you suck at, and you hate it, it's your fault for not being self aware. If you're working towards something you suck at, but love then it's considered a hobby. And if you're working towards something you have skill in, then you absolutely can achieve your goals. The saying is about work ethic and dedication not magic and goodwill. Shit this board has gone down hill.

Yeah, time tables are fucking mad hard.

The disconnect of tacobell and reality is real kek

The expectation of fixed competency limits potential. Everyone has different affinities for different skills but sooner or later you will hit a ceiling that can only be lifted by practice and improvement. Only lazy brainless think the way you do

Imagine being so fat you think of food...

Factually wrong.

most people don't even go to class

lel my cs department only requires calc 1 and discrete math. Looks like you fell for the engineering meme

Literally this

no. the ones getting the good jobs are good at communicating, socially likeable, and not very autistic. If you get a job just because of your intelligence, your likely a codemonkey that everyone else wishes would just work remotely and your never going to get promoted or work in any management position

I can't possibly understand how the brainlet OP feels like as It was literally the only subject I managed to get a 4.0 GPA on (yes I am become autism). Maybe you are more of a Cal 3 person user?

>mathematics == arbitrary
Maybe you can switch to sociology or journalism, where you can be with people of similar mental capacity.

tfw I got a 100% in calc 2 but a B in calc 1 and acedlinear algebra, calc 3 and vector analysis but got a C in discrete math. Am I an anomaly Jow Forums?

Attached: 2923606-makoto_makimura.jpg (480x269, 25K)

If I take calc 3 I get a math minor. I'm in linalg right now. It's not that bad.

Calc III is easier than Calc II. Linear Algebra is easier than both of them. Differential Equations is shit. Fuck that class.

Not him, but I'd argue that discrete math is more important than linear algebra for programmers, so at least he has that. But yeah, linear algebra is still more useful than calculus.

This user is wise and we should listen to him.

This.

>CpE
CpE is to EE, like CS is to CpE

I'm good at programming and good at communicating, so I'm gunning for lead programmer. I could probably make more money in a purely managerial position at our sister company, but I have three decades of work ahead of me and I'd hate to spend all of that time doing something I don't get pleasure out of.

You don't need to spend 2 semesters on it. Don't know why so many schools waste time dragging it out.

Not a CS major but my school only requires calc 1, sets and logic, and discrete mathematics.

I'm doing Physics and only have to do Calc 1-4/Linear Algebra 1, Diff. Eq. 1. CS used to be essentially a Math degre but those days are no longer.

Don't listen to people on this retarded site. Most of them will probably wind up killing themselves (hopefully) within the next 3 years anyway, user. I am in the same boat as you and it comes down to two things, and professors agree with me on this.
1. It is a brain exercise, it helps you think critically, bottom line. 2. It makes more money, especially if remedial classes are needed. College is a money maker, that is why sometimes universities make books with big publishers tailored just for that school. Just keep going, and get the help you need. A doctor is still a doctor, even if he wasn't a straight A student...

Historically PhDs were really only meant for those going into academia. You'd end up in academic tenure. PhDs largely out# tenure positions nowadays. I read there's around 100,000 Phds given annually, and that one professor will train 40+ PhDs over his career. So 40:1 ratio.

Try government r&d. They're black and white at the hiring process, and a PhD probably means more to government than private r&d. Private r&d only want those with experience in the industry, so your bachelors/masters that wageslaved for 5-10 years.

Wtf op passed AP calc 1& 2 in highschool with 4's it ain't that hard man
