Math 3C03 and 3D03 (Mathemathical Physics)
Anyone taken these courses?
I always enjoyed physics class back in high school so I got interested just from the course titles.
Any insight into them would be nice. I haven't taken any of the physics courses they recommend in the course listing so the difficulty and workload compared to other math courses has me a bit worried.
Anyone?

I haven't taken them personally, but I know some eng phys people who have. 3C/3D are basically math for physics/eng phys. You learn a whole bunch of methods.

As such, there's no point taking it if you're in math. All you'd get out of it would be methods and little to no proofs (i.e. "understanding"). The same material is covered in 3F/3FF, with bits and pieces from 2R and 3X -- so if you're in math you will most likely just be reviewing methods by taking those courses, although maybe with a few interesting physics applications.

Could be some easy 12s though, if you're desperate.

With Min-Oo teaching it, he won't make it an easy 12.

Still should be an easy 12, but perhaps for different reasons...also, should be more interesting, then. (This is assuming you'd be taking 3f/3ff)
