Precalculus

You can learn everything about it in one day.
However, competency in algebra, factorization, functions, etc. is something you drill into you by doing so many problems and exercises you force yourself into proficiency.

Gonna agree with this guy, you can familiarize yourself with the concepts in one day but it takes much more time and effort to be truly proficient in all of those concepts

Fuck. Why does everything have to take effort? Shouldn't everything be automated already?

>>8520365
Well, not everything takes effort, but mastery of a specific skill pretty much always will until we get cyborg brains

In 1 - 3 months, perhaps, but like everyone else in this thread is saying you can *know* concepts but you won't be able to actually apply them without practice.

How do you get "intuition" and "deep understanding" of the concepts? Like, applying it to every relevant problem? Whats the best way to achieve this kind of intution in the learning process?

do a fuckton of exercises

You know what it takes, but you are just lazy and want to believe that there is a different way to reach proficiency in a mathematics subject. The way you were taught math in school is the best way to gain maximum proficiency in math.

It takes solving problems, solving more problems, and rounding it off by solving even more complex problems regarding the concepts that you're attempting to learn.

You can't treat math like history. You learn by doing and opening your mind up to the different patterns in which you can solve the same problem. If you're wanting an endless list of free problems to do, then just search Google. They're almost limitless problems to do on almost every mathematical subject.

After a while you'll start to understand the concepts that underlie the problems you're solving. It just happens. At this point you can help others out with their problems, and teach them things that they might not know about it. This will help solidify the knowledge even more.

Pick up a math text book on the level of math that you're struggling with and work through it. Complete every problem. Anything up to trig and even some cal books will all be good since it's hard to fuck up the concrete concepts.

Depends. How much adderall do you have?

>>8519890
the shitty shit is that calculus doesn't even use precalc shit like imaginary numbers (as far as I no)

>Can I learn it all in one day?
Yes.

How possible is it?
Close to impossible

Honestly, the answer to any hypothetical question can be yes or no.
