Where is all this math talk coming from? I graduated with a CS degree in May, and there really wasn't that much math for a STEM major. I took college algebra in HS, trig and calc 1+2 at community college, and then discrete math (barely math), linear algebra (easy) and stats (not hard) at university.

That's a solid number of math courses, but these posts are making it out to be like a CS major is a math minor, which isn't the case. I consider myself kinda subpar at math, and I made it through just fine aside from Calc.

It pretty much is a math minor at my college. The CS advisors try to push you into a math minor because a lot of the classes overlap and you wouldn't need to go out of your way because you would already have done most of the classes anyway.

CS majors here have to do Calc 1-3, DiffEq, Linear Algebra, upper level Stats, maybe some others.
