<p>I understand that Calculus II (MATH 1120) is a prerequisite for Linear Algebra (MATH 2210) but if I were able to get permission from the instructor would it be difficult to take both courses simultaneously? Does Linear Algebra require knowledge of concepts from Calculus II? Would the workload by ridiculous?</p>
<p>I only watched a few lectures on Linear Algebra over the summer (through Cornell’s videos) so don’t take my word for it, but I didn’t need any calculus knowledge to understand linear algebra.</p>
<p>I think on KhanAcademy (website with lots of math tutorials), a teacher said that one can go straight to Linear Algebra from PreCalculus.</p>
<p>I don’t go to cornell but basic linear is completely separate. Might be a few application topics that incorporate both but you should be fine</p>
<p>Anyone who has experience with the courses at Cornell?</p>
<p>1120 teaches integrals, basic differential equations, and series and sequences. The material tends to be not awfully tricky, but the exams seem to come out of nowhere.</p>
