yes. also a lot of upper div. physics requires you to use linear algebra the same way lower div. physics requires you to use calc.

i will say that doing manual matrix operations is tedious as fuck and possibly my least favorite thing math-wise. linear algebra is one of my least favorite math courses.

you dont need any calculus really. maybe it is ust a prereq are your school? most people go through the calc sequence first anyways

some linear algebra courses mix diff eq. and linear algebra though.

Real analysis is necessary if you want to do any grad-level probability or stats instead of just monkeying around with formulas you don't understand.

All the standard textbooks have been scanned and are easily available for free .pdf download if you google them. Then find the relevant class website at some random university and look for homework sets/worked solutions.

It's really hard shit though and you should really just take the class. I'm available via email if you have questions tho.

Yes. Got an A+. Email me if you need any help.

It's a lot clearer once you stop thinking in terms of matrices and start thinking in terms of linear operators, imo.
