A Knowledge Primer

Name: Anonymous 2008-07-30 0:03

I'm starting college in the fall.

Computer Science.

But my math skills are like swiss cheese, and I never bothered with chemistry.

Of course, I'm taking General Chemistry and Calculus. Prereqs and all that.

Here's the deal; Anyone have anything I can use, or somewhere I can go to brush up on these subjects? Everything from Algebra to Geometry and Calculus itself wouldn't hurt. As for Chem, anything would be a help. I never really bothered to study it myself.

I was homeschooled (I didn't have much of a say) and I feel like my education isn't the sturdiest. Go figure. So anyways, any help?

CS grad student here.

I started in remedial math. Don't let any faggot tell you that you can't do something because you were not some spoiled asian AP brat. I didn't give a shit about math in HS. I honestly don't understand how you could learn anything meaningful from most HS math teachers anyway.

I fucked around Peru for 3 years then came back and started ground up. Basic Algebra all the way through trig and pre-calc, clac, diff eqs, finally discrete math. Took me 6 fucking years and about 50 credits of math courses, but honestly, I think I have a stronger grasp than most 17 year olds who went straight from HS to struggle through Calc 2.
