    Resources
In summary, the individual is preparing for their main GCSEs and has discovered that their math teacher did not cover all the syllabus, leaving them to teach themselves the rest. They will also be studying math and further math at A-level, and then pursuing a degree in abstract or theoretical physics and math. They are seeking online resources to supplement their textbook and have been recommended websites such as wikipedia, the wolfram resources website, calc101.com, mathworld.com, and its physics companion. They are also advised to ask questions only after understanding the fundamentals of the subject.

This website, wikipedia helps alot, the wolfram resources website, http://www.calc101.com/webMathematica/ will help you with some Calculus.

What exactly have you missed out on? I can't think of what else you need. Post questions here if you need to, but before doing so make sure you have at least an understanding of the fundamentals of that subject.
