I do agree, the courses you cited are the big stumbling blocks for people seeking those majors—however, as a 77 year old, I would not want to go back into the classroom, I would ask how well this professor was able to keep up with advances in O Chem — my best profs were not this old.

I can accept that maybe math courses are more stable?

I would absolutely think Math is far more stable.
Any advances in Mathematics would probably be in PhD level dissertations at elite level Universities.

I took College Algebra, Trig, Pre-Calc, Calc 1, Calc 2, Calc 3, Diff Eq, and Linear Algebra.

I would think nothing changed in these for a very long time.

I for got to post...I didn’t find Organic Chemistry “difficult”, but laborious. A ton of index cards and memorization.

I took O chem from an eighty year old prof. He was still doing research and earning pattens. Very straight forward guy.
