Weed-out
Limits, derivatives, optimization, and integrals. Required across engineering, CS, and pre-health; large curved sections make it a classic UF weed-out.
Typical workload: ~10 hrs/week outside class
Do not delay. UF lists this in critical tracking for 29 majors, and 422 courses sit downstream of it in the prerequisite graph. Pushing it back can push back everything behind it.

Common alternatives
Courses students weigh against this one (TrackPilot-curated; confirm against your major's requirements).
Survey of Calculus (business/life-science track) vs Analytic Geometry & Calculus (engineering/math track). Engineering, CS, and physics majors need MAC 2311; switching later costs a semester.
