As a complete moron who frequents this board out of admiration

MIT OCW

Download the PDF of the book Thomas Calculus Early Transcendentals 12th edition. There's a solutions manual floating around somewhere too.

Its what I reccomend to everyone that wants to learn calc on their own. It goes over all three calc classes, just learn some basic trig stuff and you'll be ready for Calculus.

There's a publisher called "Dover" that has some very nice books at a very affordable price as well, just stay away from Kindle versions. I've heard Kline's Calculus is very good as well from Dover, but I have no experience with Kline.

KhanAcademy will be perhaps a little easy, but helpful if you get stuck while working on other resources

Or why don't you just keep enjoying your life like you have it now and just start applying to some university.

Whatever you do, you'll like it more when you feel in some way identified with it. For example, studying maths feels much better and more 'real' if you think of yourself as someone who will soon become a mathematician.

That is not to say that the math is not worth learning for its own sake, but just a tip there.

Remember, the difference between

>eww look at that guy reading weird math books, GROSS!
and
>wow, look at that responsible future professional, he is so applied and responsible!

is just one piece of paper that says 'University of Somewhere somewhere'.

I'd love to, but I'd need to re-take my A-levels first. I wanted to be some kind of physicist, but hanged around the wrong people and didn't take me education seriously enough.
Ended up scraping Cs in statistical maths and physics, and got a B in biology. If I wanted to do a maths/physics course at uni, I'd need a minimum of ABB.

Is that really a requirement?

There is no shame in going to a university with lower standards.

I mean, your professors will be PhDs and they will be teaching you Calculus I. There is literally no objective difference between the undergrad professors at Cambridge and at the university of nigeria or some shit.

But if that's your call then sure. Good luck with your A levels.
