<p>martinez- i wouldn't be worried if I were you.<br>
"MATH 191: Calculus For Engineers</p>

<pre><code>4 credits. Prerequisite: 3 years of high school mathematics, including trigonometry and logarithms, and at least one course in differential and integral calculus.
</code></pre>

<p>This course has changed significantly from last year, and is essentially a second course in calculus. Course topics include: techniques of integration, finding areas and volumes by integration, exponential growth, partial fractions, infinite sequences and series, and power series."
-Cornell Coursebook
It looks like this starts out with integration, so you should be fine since you did derivatives in high school. I also heard that the math department has various ways to seek help if you need it.</p>

I'm sure that you could work something out if there is a real problem.

<p>thanks hockeygenius...but also what worries me in the quote u just took, is look at the prerequisiites, "differential AND integral calc"</p>

24

<p>also if u look at prelim one from math 191 and math 111, its totally different. i dont have a clue on math 191, but 111, i think i could get 70% now and i havent done calc since january. And those dont look like the very basic integrals ive glanced at in textbooks. Im jujst going to learn integrals in the summer.</p>
