You're being snide and not actually constructive. E.g. here are requirements for molecular and cellular bio at UC Berkeley, which requires a 1 year sequence covering calculus, stats and combinatorics. Linear algebra and differential equations are not requirements.

- legerdemain 5y agoThat sounds like it requires a high-school math sequence that prepares students for college calculus, doesn't it? Edit: You hardly contradicted me. My claim was that the math requirements of non-engineering science majors were 0-2 semesters of calculus and a course on statistical methods. You added combinatorics, which I usually just see taught as part of that applied methods course, rather than a stand-alone semester of mathematical combinatorics (I welcome correction). This is exactly what the current secondary math curriculum leads up to: calculus.
- diffeomorphism 5y agoThat completely contradicts your point. > my claim was.. No, it wasn't, but nice try.
- legerdemain 5y agoYou can literally read what I claimed, verbatim, a couple messages above. Please do!
- diffeomorphism 5y agoExactly, which is why it is so weird of you to lie about it.
