Hi brainlets, this is a thread where we are posting what we are studying. Life is too short not to learn something new every single day. I'll start out by saying I am studying volumes by cylindrical shells.
What are you studying right now?

I'm brushing up on some complex analysis, and then I plan to move onto some QFT.
Jacob Turner
be wary to call us brainlets when you're doing basic volume by cylindrical shells
brushing up some material today for my real analysis course coming up.
Nicholas Flores
I knew that would bait you into replying! :D
Hopefully someday I won't be a brainlet anymore if I keep studying every day though.
Requesting pics of your work if you've got 'em.
Maybe I can be you someday.

>real analysis
I like how you think your silly first year course is any better than his silly first year course.

>first year course
shit, I'm in my third year doing introductory analysis. is there no hope for me at all?

You don't want to be me. It's awful.

Yurop here, the curriculum might not entirely overlap. It looks like so:
We take calc I in the first semester of the first year, and that goes from derivatives to integrals to basic multi variable (partial derivatives). We also get some intro proofing course here that just barely touches on analysis (it ends with basic topology and limits of sequences).
Calc II is then vector calc and multi variable in the second semester. We then also get Real analysis which handles continuity in the real numbers, then moves up to continuity between multi dimensional spaces, derivatives and metric spaces.

>calc in uni
I also live in Europe, we get calc in highschool. First year uni (for STEM courses) is real analysis, single variable. Second year is real analysis multivariable and complex analysis.
I failed uni, but I passed these three courses since they were awesome.

Yeah, we also get derivatives and integrals (of 1 variable) in highschool. Calc I is mostly a repeat with some extras and harder exercises.
