calc 1 in high school and college. Got an A in it at the time. Agreed to help someone with it about 2 years ago, took one look at it and realized I don't remember any of it

econometrics and statistics for economics majors were definitely the hardest.

But business calc covered the most range

2nd calc at LSU. It was the "honors" version, but I don't think it was significantly different than the regular one.

quote:

Do you believe there is a positive correlation between level of math taken and income?

If you look at average salaries of those who have completed less than college algebra vs > than (pick level of math that is minimum for engineers), probably. But that's mostly because stats are easily manipulated and fairly useless because of it.
If you're asking if the correlation goes in a linear fashion where as the level of math increases, salary increases, probably not. Namely because of the number of MDs who don't take past Calc 1 but typically will outearn, on average, the engineers who go farther and really skew the numbers in the "only taken mid-level math" group.

Advanced Biometry. It was a graduate level stat class. If we’re referring to pure math, then it was college algebra
