It's just the flip side of Calc 1 and obviously you did well in Calc 3.....interesting.
The one class I had trouble with was Engineering Statics.....beams, forces, right-hand rule, etc. Maybe because I was going for a chemical degree, but that crap confused the hell out of me! I dropped it one semester when I found out that the summer class was a bit easier due to the time constaints. I barely got by that SOB with a C.

Calc 2 was by far the most difficult class for me in getting my Engineering degree. For a little background, I aced Calc 1 (Differentiation) without really trying, breezed through Calc 3 (Multivariate Calculus), and only had to work a little harder in my Linear Algebra & Differential Equations course. So, in those three classes, I got all As without really trying. I failed Calc 2. I took it again and got a C. Math comes pretty easy for me, and all the As I got would seem to support that, but for some reason I couldn't quite grasp integration until I was using it in Multivariate Calculus the next semester.
I got As and Bs in all my engineering and science courses, and eventually graduated with honors. So, while Calc 2 was by far the most difficult course I took in college, it didn't prevent me from doing well in my other classes.

If you can do Calc 2, you can do engineering courses, with sufficient sweat equity. *NM*

Wow, Calc 2 was that hard for you?

Anecdotally I'd say it's usually one of the hardest classes, or maybe the first 'hard one'

It's kind of hard. It could get harder. It's all hard. You can do it! *NM*
