This is insane to me. In the UK about ten years ago, on literally the first day of my degree, my first class was real analysis. Yes, it was the easy stuff like proving sequences and series converge, various things about continuous functions, but we learnt how to prove it all and the exam was all about proving various things. And we built up to harder stuff as the year went on.
What is even happening if math majors aren't studying analysis until their fourth year?
Sorry I'm so incredulous, it's just that I literally don't know what I would've been studying if analysis had been delayed so much.
