As one who did study 5-Unit Mathematics in high school, I can testify that I was completely unprepared to actual Mathematics. I was not aware of how to prove things mathematically - my level of Mathematics was one which would maybe be somewhat more appropriate for an Engineer. To think that the beauty of a fine proof, of the way Mathematics works nowadays, was out of my reach for so long. This is one of the things that made it hard for me to cope with first-semester Hedva.
Oh, and by the way, Mathematics is not a Science.
