What are the best resources for preparing to enter university?

Hi everybody. Congratulations for such a great forum.
I've been reading some posts related to my question and I've found really good stuff. The point is: I'm studying with Khan Academy with the idea of trying to go to University to graduate in Math. After Khan Academy, how should I continue? I guess textbooks are the better options, but there are quite a few.

By the way, I'm 31. Many of you say it is never too late, which is quite encouraging.

Cheers.

You should start out by getting the prospectus for the kind of UNiversity you want to enroll at, and look through their courses and the individual papers. Figure out what attracts you. The papers will have recommended textbooks - these will provide a target to aim at.
