I remember taking the upper level thermo courses for my undergraduate. Through the semester, they introduced a handful of equations for specific scenarios. Then the final was like 4 questions in 3 hours and with the equation for Gibbs Free Energy.
Lowkey, just differential equations made me want to kms. Shrodingers equation was bad but not so difficult as to be singularly memorable. My memory of my physics courses are a void and I switched my major.
Honestly the math just took my passion out of physics. I love how physics explains the world and I love how strange everything is. I love learning about physics but doing it… I used to think I was good at math lol
Difeq is a horrible pain in the ass until it clicks and becomes easier than that stupid non vector geometric integration. Is it really too much to ask to be allowed to stick to matrices and vectors‽
Its funny bc physics gets so much worse than that

Needless to say, not my best grade
We have a shared experience, I do history now
Which equation hurt you? Schrodinger’s?

I think it was the second semester of quantum mechanics when we got to perturbation theory that I really became afraid.
I never even made it to perturbation theory but hearing about it from other physics major was part of the reason I switched to history lol
Ah, DEs.
What’s so hard though, they are just linear algebra on function spaceJest aside, yeah mathematical device for physics could easily become quite hard and unwieldy.
I should strangle you lmao.

I’m just grateful I had stats 2 instead of calc 3
Electrodynamix gonna hurt me in few days
