Anybody on /sci find vector calculus hard? Class barely started for it and I am wondering whether it is going to be difficult or not.

it just looks scary because the notation is largely new
in reality it's mostly intuitive as long as you take the time to understand how these things look in 3D, since it's harder to just "see" it like you can in scalar calculus.

Get used to vectors and vector notation. Truly understand vectors on a component level and the rest isn't really that bad. Just keep in mind what is a vector and what is a scalar after various operations and what that actually means
