Unlike nearly all other linked courses, MATH 1553 denotes the section letter (eg. A) as "Studio" and the section letter-numbers (eg. A01) as "Lecture". This is likely an error, or maybe a special case resulting from the hybrid/remote class format in 2020. This causes a bug in [https://github.com/gt-scheduler/website/issues/42 gt-scheduler] where it doesn't do the lecture-studio matching correctly, so please double check your schedule to ensure that the Studio and Lecture sections have the same letter.

How it fits in the curriculum
Current Registration Info
This is a linked course with a common exam period.
Unlike nearly all other linked courses, MATH 1553 denotes the section letter (eg. A) as "Studio" and the section letter-numbers (eg. A01) as "Lecture". This is likely an error, or maybe a special case resulting from the hybrid/remote class format in 2020. This causes a bug in gt-scheduler where it doesn't do the lecture-studio matching correctly, so please double check your schedule to ensure that the Studio and Lecture sections have the same letter. See: OSCAR list of all sections
Prerequisites

Courses that give the same credit
MATH 1554, MATH 1564
Note: Taking MATH 1553 will not give you credit for MATH 1554 or 1564.

Interactive Linear Algebra [1553]
A free online, interactive textbook made by Georgia Tech professors. It's for MATH 1553, but it covers most of the concepts for MATH 1554
