When I say complete, I mean all things 8th-12th grade level. I want to take a time out and do a through review and make up for things I missed by not listening in class (there are maaaany of them).

basic
algebra
geometry
...etc.

Preferably one that is clear and straight forward.

I am willing to pay if it really meets or surpasses my expectations.


Thanks.

looks good. checking it out. :)
 
I am fairly confident that you will find everything you need in any college algebra textbook you pick up from www.amazon.com[/URL] . Although I haven't checked out Ranger's site yet, and will do so now :-).

You can learn most of the very very elementary stuff over the net within the span of a few hours. The grade 8-9 curriculum here consists of the basic trigonometric ratios, pythagoras's theorem, and basic algebra with one variable.

PS - Thanks Ranger, I will be watching some of those video's :D.
 
I'd say if you want to geniunely catch up on those 5 years of maths than just go and borrow 5 textbooks one for each year level and do as many problems in them as possible. Although if it's too easy don't bother. There is no shortcut with learning - at least what I have found.

After that or in conjuction do as many junior maths competition problems as possible. They are a very good indication of whether you know your stuff or not.

You might want to also check out http://bymath.com/. What this guy did was essentially translate two basic Russian math textbooks.
 
Grab a good precalculus textbook and a geometry text.

ranger, most of the links you provided don't seem to work...

Could you perhaps send me the ones that don't work in a PM or email? And I'll see if I an find an alternate source. They were all working at the time of posting. AFAIK, about 90% of the links are currently working [from random clicking].
