Thinking more, I also had non-linear equations, and chaos (non-integral exponents, fractals, etc). Also, error theory (what happens if your initial conditions change in such and such a way, OR, if you can't find a solution, can you find a solution if you change something slightly).

As for Diff EQ, I ended up taking it 3 times. First time, I failed it, since it was a class of 97 electrical engineers and 3 physics majors (one was me), and every example was EE related. The three of us were lost. That, and drinking too much that year...
Second time was at the local CC, after, you know, drinking too much that year.
Third time was back on campus, after finding out that the second time wouldn't transfer. Ended up taking it side by side with 2 other higher level math courses.

Ugh.
