Artsci Calculus
I had a question about calculus. Right now im taking calculus and vectors in night school and were done all the calculus chapters, so ive learned the material. Since its only calculus in first year would it make a difference if I drop my calculus and vectors? or does first year calculus also include vectors? Sorry, I know my question is confusing...lol. thanks for all the help!

Vectors is something you should know, I can't remember if we focused on vectors in Math 1LS3....but I know that if you plan on taking physics knowing vectors will only help you.

Besides why would you drop Calculus and Vectors when you're pretty much done the class?

hmmm... thats true. And its because I take it in night class, so it takes up all my wednesday and monday nights, which leaves me no time to do assignments for my other classes...

The vectors section of Gr12 Calc and Vectors is more like Math 1B03 Linear Algebra. So I guess if you really wanted to, you could drop it--if it isn't a prerequisite.

Nope, when I took the ArtSci Calc we didn't touch upon vectors at all

I had three math courses in eng . while one was called calculus the last three classes were vectors. I felt bad for BC people because it was alot of material to learn right before the exam. I would learn it as vector comes up in physics
