Difficult: I thought 3.11.1 could be difficult, mostly because I don't remember it very well from Abstract Algebra, but I feel like their explanation is very good, so that should help me as I practice this procedure in homework problems and during lecture.
Interesting: I thought it was interesting that only Linear Algebra is required to take this class and yet there is a discussion of fields, which I feel like is in the realm of Math 371. Most of the students in the class have probably already taken Abstract Algebra, but I wonder how confusing this section is for those who do not really have a very clear and concise definition of what a field is. However, I feel like the section was a good overview of ideas addressed in Math 371, so maybe it wouldn't be as big of a problem as I think it could be.
