    I'm signing up for classes this upcoming semester, and as part of my Mathematics degree I will need to take both Real Analysis and Abstract Algebra. However, my scheduling for this next term allows only one of these courses for now.

    So which one of these should it be? Has anyone taken these courses, or have reasoning as to take one before the other?

      Judging by the names of the classes, Analysis sounds more useful, and possibly easier. Though it'll also probably be more boring.

      Abstract algebra only sounds fun if you're a ub3r math n3rd. You'll probably learn more from it though.

      Maybe.

        Algebra killed me at GCSE level. Analysis I say.

          Abstract Algebra. But really, don't leave a decision that will effect you for a whole term to some teens on the internet. I'd read through both course outlines and sign up with the first one that comes to mind. Don't second guess yourself.
