First math class at Swarthmore:  Math 25

What was your favorite math class and why? Real Analysis, it was the first upper level math class I took and I really like Prof. Whitehead.

Why did you become a math major?   I liked math and I was pretty good at it.

How do you expect to use your mathematics after leaving Swarthmore?  I would like to pursue a graduate degree in Applied Math.

What advice do you have for an incoming student?  Don't stress if you don't understand something, the more you practice the better you'll understand it.
