Is this class worth taking? Most of what it covers I've done in previous classes (e.g. analysis), but I'm wondering if there is any other point in taking it (it covers recursion, number theory, graph theory, etc)
 
Yes it is not just for academic purpose but for your future job preparation also. You will find in many Quantitative roles' interview questions directly asked from material what you will study during the course. Its a fun course as there isn't too much theorem proofs but lot more problem solving. It will also give you some theoretical background required for Data Structure and Algorithms course (in case, later you decide to take one).
