- pmarreck 10y agoIs that a separate course or did they renumber the courses since I've been there?
- Hydraulix989 10y agoThey are separate courses. I didn't have any AP Calculus credits so I had to take both. At some point (I think a few years before 2008?), Cornell also renumbered the courses by adding an extra zero to convert them to four digits (as required by the new PeopleSoft course management system).
- Hydraulix989 10y agoI had a REALLY hard time in MATH 1910. A lot of people came in with private school educations and breezed right through it all. Meanwhile, I felt like I was struggling to catch up on the very basics such as L'Hôpital's rule because my high school was just okay but not great. I started with a B- after the first prelim (which was the median grade), had to go to tutoring at the Math Support Center in Mallott and go to office hours, and after all that, I managed to somehow bring up my grade to an A- by the end of semester. Even still, it was VERY stressful. I wonder how you must have handled having to retake the class. I would've been losing my mind from anxiety if that happened.
