Well, I know it's been too long since I had my college math courses. Since I have been considering going back to school this really scares me. And yet, I still have enough rememberance that I've always been able to tackle anything an engineer did. I did do physics though and have found a lot of that useful in the engineering fields in which I have worked.

Still, I feel that I would need to repeat all calculus in order to be where I want to be in college. I had 3 semesters of calculus so that's a lot to me to be thinking about repeating. I am procrastinating.

I had three semesters of calc, too. The first two were great, I had a really good teacher. Calc 3 was a waste of time. I didn't learn anything. So of course, when I got to linear algebra, I was lost, because I didn't understand vectors.

Calc 1 and 2 were fun, and so was Discrete. Prob and Stats was hideous (mostly because I'd forgotten too much Calc by that point).
