Does Discrete Math require Calculus?

2.4k Views Asked by At

So I'm transferring to UC Berkeley and they require Discrete Math or 1 other math class for me to declare my Psychology major.

So it is highly recommended to take Calculus for maturity before entering it, and I suck at math but I need this class to declare. I'm not even yet at Trig and have no time to build into Calc.

I have some Algebra 2 knowledge and was wondering if Discrete Math is gonna kick me in the gluteus maximus without the recommended Calc? Like if I would still be able to grasp its concepts without that math "maturity". I really need Discrete Math but will not have time to meet the recommended requirement.

I was hoping to take it and get tutored and take advantage of study time, and read ahead, if it helps.

Most discrete math does not require calculus at all. Usually you can take them concurrently but in all reality you do not need calculus for most discrete math topics.
