On Reddit: "MATH3511 is an algebra course through and through, being about group theory from the perspective of geometry. If you've taken MATH2701, expect strong similarities with the algebra half of that course, or some similarities with some of the earlier parts of MATH3611. I can't say e…"
On Reddit: "I can only really recommend what I’ve taken so far. I enjoyed both MATH3511 (groups and geometry - it was interesting going into a lot of aspects of Euclidean geometry, isometry and similarity groups in the plane, symmetry groups, and projective geometry) and MATH3411 (Informati…"
