So I’ve decided to stop being lazy and have a look at how I’d sequence my courses, since I noticed that PMATH courses have some crazy offering schedules, like ONLY OFFERED IN FALL OF EVEN YEARS. It didn’t seem smart to leave it up to chance. And it wasn’t. It took me a bit to figure out the right sequence, and some anger, in that some courses that I really wanted to take (Set Theory and Model Theory, Non-Commutative Algebra) were offered whenever I was on coop. But I think I’ve got this thing figured out.
