Hello everyone,
Thanks for helping me in this dangerous conquest
First, let me tell you a little backround on my Math skills. I was brought up in your "average" Math school, and up until 8th grade, I took all regular classes. Basically, in my old, tiny, rural school, one had no "advanced" math topics. Not even a teacher for each subject. However, I moved into a better city and it thankfully had a school that offered Algebra 1 in 8th grade. I took it, but I failed at it. After analyzing why and reading some course books, I narrowed it down to the fact that the pre requisite was to take 8th grade Math in 6th and 7th years, in "accelerated" courses, in order to take Algebra. I never took the pre-req, so naturally I dropped out. Now I sit here in the summer before high-school and regret my mistake.
I plan on becoming a doctor, but have an inherent interest in math and would like to hear any theories/suggestions on getting into more advanced courses in order to compensate for my mistake.
