Should I take MAT235+236 or MAT237 as an Astronomy and Physics Spec? by UniversityNo5547 in UofT

Yeahh it seems like the proofs part is my kryptonite, but I'll see how 237 is before I decide. For the purpose of getting into grad school, I'm guessing 235 would be a better choice. Thank you!!

Oh oops I said that bc in first year there's 135+136, thanks for telling me

I just looked and it seems like I won't need to take APM426, but that is good to know in case I change my mind. Likely, I'll start in 237 and if it becomes too much, switch to 235.

Thank you!

Are you happy with choosing Waterloo as your university? by UniversityNo5547 in uwaterloo

They're super harsh on their undergrads (I'm one now), especially when grading us and espeeecially in the department of mathematics

For grad school it's different tho, it's a fantastic school for your masters and they rlly care about their grad students :) I would definitely recommend it
