<p>Hey guys, I just took Calc I and managed an A, but it took a lot of effort on my part. </p>
<p>There are about 8 or 9 days before my semester starts and I bought "The Calculus Lifesaver" and a workbook of calc problems to go over before the class starts.</p>
<p>Realistically speaking, I have no intention of going far in depth and reading the book cover to cover/doing every problem. However I would like to review and learn some key concepts for an hour or two over the next few days, since it might help me when I actually take the class.</p>
<p>What sort of things would you recommend having a strong knowledge base in before going into the class?
Did it help to know how to work well with logarithms and trigonometry beforehand? Or would it be a better idea to get right into going over actual Calc II material such as integration by parts etc.?</p>
<p>Sorry I seem a little over nervous, math is just not my strong point but a BS degree at my school requires Calc II...kind of wish I had gone with the BA and taken stats but either way I want to give it my best.</p>
