All right /sci/ I need your help. I'm currently a High School Senior and I'm seriously screwed in math. I'm passing Pre-Calculus with a C+ but I know that I'm going to really struggle in Calculus next year. Over the summer I was planning on doing all of the math modules on Khanacademy up to Pre-Calculus, and potentially to follow the steps on the /sci/ wiki. Anything else I can do to succeed in calculus next year?
Honestly, I found Calc to be easier than pre-calc. Sure, you should study over the summer, but I wouldn't stress too much.

stewart precalc (do all exercises cuz practice is what you need)
khanacademy (desu not a fan but you can use it if you want)
http://patrickjmt.com/
lrn2algebra (everything becomes so much easier)
this may sound silly but know how to do basic arithmetic quickly
download a calc textbook and get a headstart or preview some material. I'd recommend Spivak if you're hardcore enough but its unnecessary. (sidenote: understand the concept of limits really well because it appears everywhere in calculus. http://www.amazon.com/Concept-Limits-Dover-Books-Mathematics/dp/0486635430?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=ox_sc_act_title_3&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER you can read this with a good precalculus background)
don't cram for tests. Math is skill-based and you're gonna get fucked if you try and force it without practice.
Are you planning on majoring in any field which requires you to take calc?

Is any version of Stewart precalc available online?
Get a fucking tutor.

I'm considering majoring in physics after I get a strong background in math.

Drop out and self teach fucking idiot

Get a book that concisely covers everything pre-calculus (I used Dr. Chung's Math Level 2), and move through each concept one at a time. Do tons of practice problems from the internet for each one until you've got it down cold. You don't need to sit around studying theory. You need to practice that shit until you understand it instinctively.
It should only take you a month or two if you apply yourself. Source: C in algebra 2, A+ in Calc AB and BC.
