Wow... This reminds me the freshman and the sophomore year of my college. I spent four consecutive semesters to take calculus classes. Calc 1, calc 2, vector calc and diff eq.
I don't think I found usefulness of calculus as much as expected. I would rather say linear algebra is more useful for a computer science student like myself. Even though, I still have a feeling that I'm gonna end up facing a situation that I need calculus skills.
Strang is the man. I actually bought this textbook to supplement my Calc III textbook because I was having a hard time (prof being crap didn't help). So I bought this text (which has multivariable at the end + a nice section on LinALg of course) and I dominated the last portion of the course. Great book.
