MAT246 is designed to help you get comfortable with reading and writing proofs, which is essential for 300+ level math courses. The course uses a multi-exam structure (three low-stakes exams at 10-15% each) rather than one high-stakes final, which allows you to learn from earlier exams and improve your mastery of the material. This assessment style may feel demanding but it better prepares you for upper-year courses that require proof-writing skills.
