>>11932387Hello, I'm an engy student. I think murricans take Calculus and such in HS, where they just learn methods and algorithms and stuff.
My math courses for engineering also went into a lot of proofs, but the problems weren't about proving stuff, for the most part, and we probably skimmed over some important results from a math major perspective.
This did lead to some funny stuff, like how an "Intro to Math" course that dealt with some geometry from a LA standpoint recommended Hoffman and Kunze as a course book.
