Is linear algebra the true brainlet filter? I aced all my calculus courses but now I'm struggling hard as fuck in proving these basic theorems in line alg.

Linear algebra wasn't too bad but diffy-Qs messed with my brain.
Nathan Campbell
this is normal as its a different concept than Calculus, btw you havent taken calc III yet right?. anyhow, all thats left for you its to do more exercises or simply watch professor Strang who covers the subject vastly youtube.com
No one becomes good at something by slacking off.

No, even chem majors find it easy as fuck. Only brainlets in cs struggle with it.
Benjamin Lee
Linear algebra is the easiest math you will make the most mistakes in

Can confirm
Christopher Walker
might just be that ur calc courses were very computation based while the linear algebra course that ur taking is a lot more focused on theory.
Justin Thompson
if this is your first time taking a math class where you're expected to prove theorems, then that's your problem. theorem-proof based math becomes much easier with experience
Logan Johnson
Might just be you, OP. Linear Algebra should be easier than any part of your Calculus sequence with maybe the exception of infinite sums and series.
Matthew Carter
chem majors are smarter than cs brainlets??

Where did you get that from?

Linear Algebra was the same as ODEs for me. once it's conceptually solid you just practice until familiar. Otherwise you flail.
Charles Williams
Study the theory better and keep a formulary at hand.
Ryan Ross
No, it's the "drop out if you ever find it difficult" filter.

No, it's just that american calculus courses are easy as fuck.
Bentley Edwards
cs major here
i passed linear algebra easily having only studied the course for like 10-15 hours
discrete math on the other hand wasn't as easy but i passed nonetheless
Robert Nguyen
Nope. This is only if you had a shitty matrix/basis focused. version of linear algebra.
Jonathan Davis
Might be. I breezed through Cal and Diffeq but doing all the shit with the matrices was hard for me to understand. Probably because I never got an understanding of what I was actually doing, just memorizing the steps.
