Its not really a matter of how hard.. it depends on how much and how deep you get into it. Integration and differentiation are easy concepts and not to hard to perform - when you get to some ODE's and PDE's (ordinary and partial differential equations) in multiple dimensions, then we are starting to get hard. Here we take that stuff in 2nd year. But I guess it would be possible to do a math major without touching to much calculus, surly it cant be avoided entirely though.
Ok so calculus 1 is easy? and calculus 2 starts to get hard? What is required in part 3 and 4? What is required in Differential Equations with Linear Algebra?
