Multi-variable Calc - #@#&*!@. I still don't understand that class. Needlessly hard systems to solve.
Differential Equations - A lot less obtuse than multi-variable. I also got drilled on these during every Engineering class I took Junior and Senior year. Why they made us take this after multi-variable is beyond me. I might have understood the other better if I had.
Linear Algebra - Kind of like the latter parts of Calc II, but with a much stronger focus on methods for solving. Once you knew the procedures, it was a cakewalk.
Geometry (college level) - I took this one for fun. And it was. I loved the hell out of college level geometry, from Euclidean to Poincaré.
Amusingly enough, I barely use any math at all, and I'm in engineering. The engineers that actually do calculations...it's all plug and chug from ASME forms and international standards documents.
