As the years go by and I look back on my undergraduate experience, I realize more and more that Calculus&Mathemeatica was the most important thing I did at the University of Illinois. It was an excellent experience. Beyond Calculus, I learned computer programming, problem solving, and the value of teamwork. I am still realizing the positive impact it has made on my career ... including being an big asset when applying to MIT! Last, but not least, C&M has created many lasting friendships that I truly value! C&M develops a very unique ability to help students realize their potential by allowing them to create their own experience!
The most useful thing for me about these courses is the fact that I when I do need to use material from any of these classes, I can picture the problem in my mind and have little trouble setting up an answer. If I were armed only with equations and paper and pencil, I wouldn't even know where to begin.
