I have a triple major from Cal with math among them. All I can say is that Berkeley math classes were the most brutal, boring, and demotivating classes that I&#x27;ve ever encountered. For the longest time I tried to suck it up and blame myself. Luckily, since then I&#x27;ve had enough great classes and mentors to realize it really was the department and its professors that made me miserable, and I overcame the massive GPA drop and near-suicidal tendencies that Berkeley Math drove me to.
