During my first year of college I was an Aerospace Engineering major. I took Calculus, Physics, and Chemistry.

I had an easier time with Calculus than I had with Trigonometry and Math Analysis in high school. Are there any mathematicians out there that agree with me that learning Calc is easier?

Many thanks,
C.L.

actually when i was first learning calc, i had a hard time with it. it was a whole new world of math! calc was so different from all the math i had ever taken, and everything that i was good at didn't matter; it's like i had to start from scratch all over again. but now i think it's the easiest thing in the world.

i never had trouble with trig or any of that stuff.

hope my answer helps.

Dunno what math analysis (real and complex analysis?), but I definitely agree trigonometry is harder. I grasped calculus slightly easier, mostly because I had Yahoo! Answers, but trigonometry is still way to hard to understand for me. I still don't even know how to do the sin or cos wave thingy, but I'll try to learn it one day. Integrating and differentiating are becoming somewhat easy.

Depends on the person. Geometry has algebra in it. How? A = l x b, A = pi r^2, C = 2x pi x r etc etc Anyway, you talk of scores received. What are these scores? I would think that 97% was a good score and that 103% was impossible to get.

No, I do not agree.
Calculus is difficult if you do not study regularly.
