Lowkey, just differential equations made me want to kms. Shrodingers equation was bad but not so difficult as to be singularly memorable. My memory of my physics courses are a void and I switched my major.
Honestly the math just took my passion out of physics. I love how physics explains the world and I love how strange everything is. I love learning about physics but doing it… I used to think I was good at math lol
I remember taking the upper level thermo courses for my undergraduate. Through the semester, they introduced a handful of equations for specific scenarios. Then the final was like 4 questions in 3 hours and with the equation for Gibbs Free Energy.
Its funny bc physics gets so much worse than that
Which equation hurt you? Schrodinger’s?
Electrodynamix gonna hurt me in few days

Ah, DEs.
What’s so hard though, they are just linear algebra on function spaceJest aside, yeah mathematical device for physics could easily become quite hard and unwieldy.
I should strangle you lmao.

I think it was the second semester of quantum mechanics when we got to perturbation theory that I really became afraid.
I never even made it tp perturbation theory but hearing about it from other physics major was part of the reason I switched to history lol

Needless to say, not my best grade
We have a shared experience, I do history now
