MAT 214 & 216 together

Would MAT 214 & 216 be too much to handle? Has anyone done this? Just wondering what to expect next quarter...

No, I did that, but I was retaking 216.

You do use partial derivatives for a bit in 216, so read that part in your 214 book early on.

Depends if you're good in math more then anything else. I did MAT215 & MAT216. But I wouldn't recommend taking any upper level math class unless you're real good in it.

MAT214 is one of the easier classes, but it requires a lot of 3d visualization that can be hard. MAT216 is a medium difficulty class I'd say, doesn't depend on too many other things but it requires a lot of steps and patterns. A good teacher is needed for MAT216.
