Except for the course ordering, it lines up almost identically with the math major at my university. I'm not sure what the other posters are going on about. Most of their preferred topics that they feel you missed are either upper division electives or graduate level.

I suspect that people forget that undergraduate programs don’t really cover very much. This true not just for math, but for pretty much every other major. I mean, think about how little of physics you learn if you only take undergraduate courses!
Yeah I was a physics major and honestly it felt like we barely scratched the surface. An undergraduate degree in physics is sufficient to be a high school physics teacher, but not to be a physicist of any sort.
