      Objectives of general skills

      • Understand "elementary" mathematics profoundly
        • Understand the fundamentals of probability and statistics
        • Manipulate previously acquired knowledge that appears in a question
        • Give examples and counterexamples for definitions, properties, theorems, etc.
      • Understand and produce strict mathematical reasoning
        • Use mathematical vocabulary and formalism appropriately
        • Make sense of formal expressions
        • Rely on a picture to illustrate a concept, rationale, etc.
      • Collaborate on mathematical subjects
        • Present mathematical results orally and in a structured manner
      • Solve new problems
